From f833f2c25f471bc999b64522d4f32de7eff4455b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dima Zavin Date: Tue, 23 Aug 2011 15:56:50 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] ARM: add option to flush console before reboot If the console_lock was held while the system was rebooted, the messages in the temporary logbuffer would not have propogated to all the console drivers. This force releases the console lock if it failed to be acquired.
