Subject: [PATCH 07/48] printk: Properly deal with nbcon consoles on seq init
Origin: https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/6.8/older/patches-6.8.2-rt11.tar.xz
If a non-boot console is registering and boot consoles exist, the
consoles are flushed before being unregistered. This allows the
non-boot console to continue where the boot console left off.
If for whatever reason flushing fails, the lowest seq found from
any of the enabled boot consoles is used. Until now con->seq was
checked. However, if it is an nbcon boot console, the function
nbcon_seq_read() must be used to read seq because con->seq is
not updated for nbcon consoles.
Check if it is an nbcon boot console and if so call
nbcon_seq_read() to read seq.
Also setup the nbcon sequence number and reset the legacy
sequence number from register_console() (rather than in
nbcon_init() and nbcon_seq_force()). This removes all legacy
sequence handling from nbcon.c so the code is easier to follow
and maintain.
