If a console printer is interrupted during panic, it will never be able to reacquire ownership in order to perform and cleanup. That in itself is not a problem, since the non-panic CPU will simply quiesce in an endless loop within nbcon_reacquire_nobuf(). However, in this state, platforms that do not support a true NMI to interrupt the quiesced CPU will not be able to shutdown that CPU from within panic(). This then causes problems for such as being unable to load and run a kdump kernel. Fix this by allowing non-panic CPUs to reacquire ownership using a direct acquire. Then the non-panic CPUs can successfullyl exit the nbcon_reacquire_nobuf() loop and the console driver can perform any necessary cleanup. But more importantly, the CPU is no longer quiesced and is free to process any interrupts necessary for panic() to shutdown the CPU. All other forms of acquire are still not allowed for non-panic CPUs since it is safer to have them avoid gaining console ownership that is not strictly necessary.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
