+Subject: [PATCH 38/48] printk: nbcon: Start printing threads
+Origin: https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/6.8/older/patches-6.8.2-rt11.tar.xz
+
+If there are no boot consoles, the printing threads are started
+in early_initcall.
+
+If there are boot consoles, the printing threads are started
+after the last boot console has unregistered. The printing
+threads do not need to be concerned about boot consoles because
+boot consoles cannot register once a non-boot console has
+registered.
+
+Until a printing thread of a console has started, that console
+will print using atomic_write() in the printk() caller context.
