What if you make lockless_register_fb visible to fbcon, and then we can
have a macro:
There are more of these macro invocations under drivers/tty/vt, which
also mess up the log during debugging.
Hmm, so this option is already broken (in a way) then, my first reaction
to your mail was that we should just remove that option. But that seemed
a bit harsh to me so I've been working on a fix for the last 10 minutes
or so.
But if it is already broken I'm tempted to just remove the option and
be done with it. We really need less cruft in the fbdev/fbcon code not
more.
WARN_CONSOLE_UNLOCKED is already protected by an '#ifdef 1 ... #else
...' construct [1]. I thought about turning this into a config option.
Ah I noticed the #if but I did not notice that it was a "#if 1".
If you want to fix lockless_register_fb it really should be replaced
with a runtime check, not a Kconfig option. This would require having
some lockless variable in the console code itself, which then gets
set by the fbdev code during init based on its lockless_register_fb
setting.
But as said I think we should seriously consider just removing
lockless_register_fb.

#define WARN_FB_CONSOLE_UNLOCKED() \
do { \

} while (0)
And use that instead?
