This series has a bug fix for the early bootconsole as well as some
related efficiency improvements and cleanup.
The relevant code is subject to CONSOLE_DEBUG, which is presently only
used with CONFIG_MAC. To test this series (in qemu-system-m68k, for example)
it's helpful to enable CONFIG_EARLY_PRINTK and
CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_DEFERRED_TAKEOVER and boot with
kernel parameters 'console=ttyS0 earlyprintk keep_bootcon'.
---
Changed since v1:
- Solved problem with line wrap while scrolling.
- Added two additional patches.
Changed since v2:
- Adopted addq and subq as suggested by Andreas.
Finn Thain (3):
m68k: Fix lost column on framebuffer debug console
m68k: Avoid pointless recursion in debug console rendering
m68k: Remove unused "cursor home" code from debug console

Subject: [PATCH] maple_tree: fix MA_STATE_PREALLOC flag in mas_preallocate()
Temporarily clear the preallocation flag when explicitly requesting
allocations. Pre-existing allocations are already counted against the
request through mas_node_count_gfp(), but the allocations will not happen
if the MA_STATE_PREALLOC flag is set. This flag is meant to avoid
re-allocating in bulk allocation mode, and to detect issues with
preallocation calculations.
The MA_STATE_PREALLOC flag should also always be set on zero allocations
so that detection of underflow allocations will print a WARN_ON() during
consumption.
User visible effect of this flaw is a WARN_ON() followed by a null pointer
dereference when subsequent requests for larger number of nodes is
ignored, such as the vma merge retry in mmap_region() caused by drivers
altering the vma flags (which happens in v6.6, at least)
