printk_deferred() has never been used in all the critical code paths.
So I think printk_safe does help here; it takes care of all the
remaining cases, that are not "partly solved by printk_deferred()".

Not sure I'm following, sorry. To put it simply - we better keep
printk_safe until "new recursion prevention" >= printk_safe().
In this patch set "new recursion prevention" < printk_safe().
