Subject: [PATCH printk v2 8/8] printk: nbcon: Add functions for drivers to mark unsafe regions
Date:   Fri, 28 Jul 2023 02:08:33 +0206

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

For the write_atomic callback, the console driver may have unsafe
regions that need to be appropriately marked. Provide functions
that accept the nbcon_write_context struct to allow for the driver
to enter and exit unsafe regions.
