Sergey Senozhatsky 43a17111c2 printk: wake up klogd in vprintk_emit
We wake up klogd very late - only when current console_sem owner
is done pushing pending kernel messages to the serial/net consoles.
In some cases this results in lost syslog messages, because kernel
log buffer is a circular buffer and if we don't wakeup syslog long
enough there are chances that logbuf simply will wrap around.

The patch moves the klogd wake up call to vprintk_emit(), which is
the only legit way for a kernel message to appear in the logbuf,
right after the attempt to handle consoles. As a result, klogd
will get waken either after flushing the new message to consoles
or immediately when consoles are still busy with older messages.

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.
