[PATCH printk v3 0/2] nbcon irq_work fixes

[John Ogness <john.ogness@linutronix.de>]

Hi,

This is v3 of a series to address some irq_work issues with nbcon.
Initially motivated as a workaround for hardware-related regressions
reported [0], it turns out that the workaround is actually a nice
improvement for nbcon deferred printing in general.

v2 is here [1].

The changes since v2:

- On nbcon_free(), perform the irq_work flush before stopping the
  kthread printer.

- Rework the commit message of patch 2/2 so that reducing interrupts
  is the primary motivation and the Tegra workaround is a secondary
  "benefit". I really want the Tegra workaround information to stay
  in the commit message because it is historically significant.
