Thomas Gleixner ad56ebd1d7 printk: nbcon: Add sequence handling
Add an atomic_long_t field @nbcon_seq to the console struct to
store the sequence number for nbcon consoles. For nbcon consoles
this will be used instead of the non-atomic @seq field. The new
field allows for safe atomic sequence number updates without
requiring any locking.

On 64bit systems the new field stores the full sequence number.
On 32bit systems the new field stores the lower 32 bits of the
sequence number, which are expanded to 64bit as needed by
folding the values based on the sequence numbers available in
the ringbuffer.

For 32bit systems, having a 32bit representation in the console
is sufficient. If a console ever gets more than 2^31 records
behind the ringbuffer then this is the least of the problems.

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 Restructured Text 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.
