From f92bac3b141b8233e34ddf32d227e12bfba07b48 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sergey Senozhatsky Date: Tue, 27 Dec 2016 23:16:05 +0900 Subject: printk: rename nmi.c and exported api A preparation patch for printk_safe work. No functional change. - rename nmi.c to print_safe.c - add `printk_safe' prefix to some (which used both by printk-safe and printk-nmi) of the exported functions.
