Hi,

This is v5 of a series to introduce the new non-BKL (nbcon)
consoles. v4 is here [0]. For information about the motivation
of the atomic consoles, please read the cover letter of v1 [1].

This series focuses on providing the base functionality of the
nbcon consoles. In particular, it implements the ownership and
priority semantics for nbcon consoles. This series does _not_
include threaded printing, atomic printing regions, or nbcon
drivers. Those features will be added in separate follow-up
series.

The changes since v4:

- Remove nbcon_seq_init() and use nbcon_seq_force() instead.

- For nbcon_seq_force(), use the oldest record if the specified
  record no longer exists.

- For all try_acquire_*() variants, do not update the nbcon
  state on success since it was not used.

- For nbcon_context_try_acquire_requested(), replace the cmpxhg
  loop with a single cmpxchg.

- For nbcon_context_try_acquire_requested(), remove an explicit
  check for @unsafe_takeover. The nbcon_waiter_matches() check
  is enough to detect unsafe hostile takeovers.

- Rename nbcon_context_acquire_hostile() back to
  nbcon_context_try_acquire_hostile().

- Decide in nbcon_context_try_acquire_hostile() if an unsafe
  hostile acquire is allowed rather than at the end of and
  after nbcon_context_try_acquire_handover().

- For register_console(), call nbcon_free() if it is a braille
  console.

- Change many comments as suggested by pmladek. In the feedback
  thread I mentioned some other comment changes that I made.

- Added various WARN_ON_ONCE() checks as suggested by pmladek.
