Merge tag 'printk-for-5.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/printk/linux

Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:

 - New "no_hash_pointers" kernel parameter causes that %p shows raw
   pointer values instead of hashed ones. It is intended only for
   debugging purposes. Misuse is prevented by a fat warning message that
   is inspired by trace_printk().

 - Prevent a possible deadlock when flushing printk_safe buffers during
   panic().

 - Fix performance regression caused by the lockless printk ringbuffer.
   It was visible with huge log buffer and long messages.

 - Documentation fix-up.
