162a7e7500 printk: allocate kernel log buffer earlier
On larger systems, because of the numerous ACPI, Bootmem and EFI messages,
the static log buffer overflows before the larger one specified by the
log_buf_len param is allocated.  Minimize the overflow by allocating the
new log buffer as soon as possible.

On kernels without memblock, a later call to setup_log_buf from
kernel/init.c is the fallback.

5264f2f75d include/linux/printk.h: use and neaten no_printk
- Move no_printk above first CONFIG_PRINTK block so it can be used by
  printk_once.

- Convert statement expression if (0) printk macros to no_printk.

- Convert printk_once(x...) to more normally used (fmt, ...) fmt,
  ##__VA_ARGS__.

- Standardize __attribute__ use.

- Expand single line inline functions.

- Remove space before pointer.

a9747cc3ad include/linux/printk.h: move console functions and variables together
There are many uses of printk_once(KERN_<level>, so add pr_<level>_once
macros to avoid printk_once(KERN_<level> pr_fmt(fmt).

Add an #ifdef CONFIG_PRINTK for print_hex_dump and static inline void
functions for the #else cases to reduce embedded code size.  Neaten and
organize the rest of the code.

This patch:

Move console functions and variables together.

455cd5ab30 kptr_restrict for hiding kernel pointers from unprivileged users
Add the %pK printk format specifier and the /proc/sys/kernel/kptr_restrict
sysctl.

The %pK format specifier is designed to hide exposed kernel pointers,
specifically via /proc interfaces.  Exposing these pointers provides an
easy target for kernel write vulnerabilities, since they reveal the
locations of writable structures containing easily triggerable function
pointers.  The behavior of %pK depends on the kptr_restrict sysctl.

If kptr_restrict is set to 0, no deviation from the standard %p behavior
occurs.  If kptr_restrict is set to 1, the default, if the current user
(intended to be a reader via seq_printf(), etc.) does not have CAP_SYSLOG
(currently in the LSM tree), kernel pointers using %pK are printed as 0's.
 If kptr_restrict is set to 2, kernel pointers using %pK are printed as
0's regardless of privileges.  Replacing with 0's was chosen over the
default "(null)", which cannot be parsed by userland %p, which expects
"(nil)".

968ab1838a include/linux/kernel.h: Move logging bits to include/linux/printk.h
Move the logging bits from kernel.h into printk.h so that
there is a bit more logical separation of the generic from
the printk logging specific parts.
