Subject: [PATCH printk-rework 14/14] printk: console: remove unnecessary safe buffer usage
Date: Thu, 18 Feb 2021 09:18:17 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210218081817.28849-15-john.ogness@linutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210218081817.28849-1-john.ogness@linutronix.de>

Upon registering a console, safe buffers are activated when setting
up the sequence number to replay the log. However, these are already
protected by @console_sem and @syslog_lock. Remove the unnecessary
safe buffer usage.
