Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:

 - Offload writing printk() messages on consoles to per-console
   kthreads.

   It prevents soft-lockups when an extensive amount of messages is
   printed. It was observed, for example, during boot of large systems
   with a lot of peripherals like disks or network interfaces.

   It prevents live-lockups that were observed, for example, when
   messages about allocation failures were reported and a CPU handled
   consoles instead of reclaiming the memory. It was hard to solve even
   with rate limiting because it would need to take into account the
   amount of messages and the speed of all consoles.

   It is a must to have for real time. Otherwise, any printk() might
   break latency guarantees.

   The per-console kthreads allow to handle each console on its own
   speed. Slow consoles do not longer slow down faster ones. And
   printk() does not longer unpredictably slows down various code paths.

   There are situations when the kthreads are either not available or
   not reliable, for example, early boot, suspend, or panic. In these
   situations, printk() uses the legacy mode and tries to handle
   consoles immediately.

 - Add documentation for the printk index.
