Subject: [PATCH 19/24] rcu: Add atomic write enforcement for rcu stalls
From: John Ogness <[email-masked]>
Date: Wed, 14 Sep 2022 08:17:13 +0206

Invoke the atomic write enforcement functions for rcu stalls to
ensure that the information gets out to the consoles.

It is important to note that if there are any legacy consoles
registered, they will be attempting to directly print from the
printk-caller context, which may jeopardize the reliability of the
atomic consoles. Optimally there should be no legacy consoles
registered.
