Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:

 - Allow creaing nbcon console drivers with an unsafe write_atomic()
   callback that can only be called by the final nbcon_atomic_flush_unsafe().
   Otherwise, the driver would rely on the kthread.

   It is going to be used as the-best-effort approach for an
   experimental nbcon netconsole driver, see

     https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251121-nbcon-v1-2-503d17b2b4af@debian.org

   Note that a safe .write_atomic() callback is supposed to work in NMI
   context. But some networking drivers are not safe even in IRQ
   context:

     https://lore.kernel.org/r/oc46gdpmmlly5o44obvmoatfqo5bhpgv7pabpvb6sjuqioymcg@gjsma3ghoz35

   In an ideal world, all networking drivers would be fixed first and
   the atomic flush would be blocked only in NMI context. But it brings
   the question how reliable networking drivers are when the system is
   in a bad state. They might block flushing more reliable serial
   consoles which are more suitable for serious debugging anyway.

 - Allow to use the last 4 bytes of the printk ring buffer.

 - Prevent queuing IRQ work and block printk kthreads when consoles are
   suspended. Otherwise, they create non-necessary churn or even block
   the suspend.

 - Release console_lock() between each record in the kthread used for
   legacy consoles on RT. It might significantly speed up the boot.

 - Release nbcon context between each record in the atomic flush. It
   prevents stalls of the related printk kthread after it has lost the
   ownership in the middle of a record

 - Add support for NBCON consoles into KDB

 - Add %ptsP modifier for printing struct timespec64 and use it where
   possible

 - Misc code clean up

Channels remain static unless the BMC firmware changes.
Therefore, rescanning is unnecessary while they are marked
ready and no BMC update has occurred.

channel_handler() sets intf-&gt;channels_ready to true but never
clears it, so __scan_channels() skips any rescan. When the BMC
firmware changes a rescan is required. Allow it by clearing
the flag before starting a new scan.

<title>ipmi: Fix the race between __scan_channels() and deliver_response()</title>

The race window between __scan_channels() and deliver_response() causes
the parameters of some channels to be set to 0.

1.[CPUA] __scan_channels() issues an IPMI request and waits with
         wait_event() until all channels have been scanned.
         wait_event() internally calls might_sleep(), which might
         yield the CPU. (Moreover, an interrupt can preempt
         wait_event() and force the task to yield the CPU.)
2.[CPUB] deliver_response() is invoked when the CPU receives the
         IPMI response. After processing a IPMI response,
         deliver_response() directly assigns intf-&gt;wchannels to
         intf-&gt;channel_list and sets intf-&gt;channels_ready to true.
         However, not all channels are actually ready for use.
3.[CPUA] Since intf-&gt;channels_ready is already true, wait_event()
         never enters __wait_event(). __scan_channels() immediately
         clears intf-&gt;null_user_handler and exits.
4.[CPUB] Once intf-&gt;null_user_handler is set to NULL, deliver_response()
         ignores further IPMI responses, leaving the remaining
	 channels zero-initialized and unusable.

<title>ipmi: Fix handling of messages with provided receive message pointer</title>

<id>e2c69490dda5d4c9f1bfbb2898989c8f3530e354</id>
<content type='text'>
Prior to commit b52da4054ee0 ("ipmi: Rework user message limit handling"),
i_ipmi_request() used to increase the user reference counter if the receive
message is provided by the caller of IPMI API functions. This is no longer
the case. However, ipmi_free_recv_msg() is still called and decreases the
reference counter. This results in the reference counter reaching zero,
the user data pointer is released, and all kinds of interesting crashes are
seen.

Fix the problem by increasing user reference counter if the receive message
has been provided by the caller.

Fixes: b52da4054ee0 ("ipmi: Rework user message limit handling")

Prior to commit b52da4054ee0 ("ipmi: Rework user message limit handling"),
i_ipmi_request() used to increase the user reference counter if the receive
message is provided by the caller of IPMI API functions. This is no longer
the case. However, ipmi_free_recv_msg() is still called and decreases the
reference counter. This results in the reference counter reaching zero,
the user data pointer is released, and all kinds of interesting crashes are
seen.

Fix the problem by increasing user reference counter if the receive message
has been provided by the caller.

Fixes: b52da4054ee0 ("ipmi: Rework user message limit handling")

<title>ipmi: Add Loongson-2K BMC support</title>

This patch adds Loongson-2K BMC IPMI support.

According to the existing design, we use software simulation to
implement the KCS interface registers: Stauts/Command/Data_Out/Data_In.

Also since both host side and BMC side read and write kcs status, fifo flag
is used to ensure data consistency.

The single KCS message block is as follows:

+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|FIFO flags| KCS register data | CMD data | KCS version | WR REQ | WR ACK |
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+

<title>ipmi:si: Gracefully handle if the BMC is non-functional</title>

If the BMC is not functional, the driver goes into an error state and
starts a 1 second timer.  When the timer times out, it will attempt a
simple message.  If the BMC interacts correctly, the driver will start
accepting messages again.  If not, it remains in error state.

If the driver goes into error state, all messages current and pending
will return with an error.

This should more gracefully handle when the BMC becomes non-operational,
as opposed to trying each messages individually and failing them.

It's only used to hold the corresponding receive message, so fix the
name to make that clear and the type so nothing else can be accidentally
assigned to it.
