My idea was to drop most of the pdc console, so that patch #8 and parts
of patch #11 of the printk patch series could be dropped and you won't
need to take care of those parts when introducing the printk
threaded/atomic printing changes.

See patch below. Basically it drops all of the offending code.
I haven't yet checked it into my parisc for-next tree to not break
something.

Subject: [PATCH] parisc: Drop PDC console and convert it to an early console

Rewrite the PDC console to become an early console, which can be used
for kgdb as well.
