timekeeping: use printk_deferred when holding timekeeping seqlock
Jiri Bohac pointed out that there are rare but potential deadlock
possibilities when calling printk while holding the timekeeping
seqlock.
This is due to printk() triggering console sem wakeup, which can
cause scheduling code to trigger hrtimers which may try to read
the time.
Specifically, as Jiri pointed out, that path is:
printk
vprintk_emit
console_unlock
up(&console_sem)
__up
wake_up_process
try_to_wake_up
ttwu_do_activate
ttwu_activate
activate_task
enqueue_task
enqueue_task_fair
hrtick_update
hrtick_start_fair
hrtick_start_fair
get_time
ktime_get
--> endless loop on
read_seqcount_retry(&timekeeper_seq, ...)
This patch tries to avoid this issue by using printk_deferred (previously
named printk_sched) which should defer printing via a irq_work_queue.
