Merge tag 'printk-for-5.11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/printk/linux

Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:

 - Finally allow parallel writes and reads into/from the lockless
   ringbuffer. But it is not a complete solution. Readers are still
   serialized against each other. And nested writes are still prevented
   by printk_safe per-CPU buffers.

 - Use ttynull as the ultimate fallback for /dev/console.

 - Officially allow disabling console output by using console="" or
   console=null

 - A few code cleanups

* tag 'printk-for-5.11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/printk/linux:
  printk: remove logbuf_lock writer-protection of ringbuffer
  printk: inline log_output(),log_store() in vprintk_store()
  printk: remove obsolete dead assignment
  printk/console: Allow to disable console output by using console="" or console=null
  init/console: Use ttynull as a fallback when there is no console
  printk: ringbuffer: Reference text_data_ring directly in callees.
