    printk: rename cpulock functions · faebd693
    John Ogness authored Apr 21, 2022
    
    
    Since the printk cpulock is CPU-reentrant and since it is used
    in all contexts, its usage must be carefully considered and
    most likely will require programming locklessly. To avoid
    mistaking the printk cpulock as a typical lock, rename it to
    cpu_sync. The main functions then become:
    
        printk_cpu_sync_get_irqsave(flags);
        printk_cpu_sync_put_irqrestore(flags);
    
    Add extra notes of caution in the function description to help
    developers understand the requirements for correct usage.
