Linux kernel for uConsole
This patch make sure printing of log on console if loglevel
at time of storing log is less than current console loglevel.
@why
In SMP printk can work asynchronously, logs can be missed on console
because it checks current log level at time of console_unlock,
not at time of storing logs.
func()
{
....
....
console_verbose(); // user wants to have all the logs on console.
pr_alert();
dump_backtrace(); //prints with default loglevel.
...
console_silent(); // stop all logs from printing on console.
}
Now if console_lock was owned by another process, the messages might
be handled after the consoles were silenced.
Reused flag LOG_NOCONS as its usage is gone long back by the commit

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
