Subject: [PATCH 082/134] printk: nbcon: Allow drivers to mark unsafe regions
 and check state
Origin: https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/6.6/older/patches-6.6.7-rt18.tar.xz

For the write_atomic callback, the console driver may have unsafe
regions that need to be appropriately marked. Provide functions
that accept the nbcon_write_context struct to allow for the driver
to enter and exit unsafe regions.

Also provide a function for drivers to check if they are still the
owner of the console.
