printk: use atomic64_t for devkmsg_user.seq
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
@user->seq is indirectly protected by @logbuf_lock. Once @logbuf_lock
is removed, @user->seq will be no longer safe from an atomicity point
of view.

In preparation for the removal of @logbuf_lock, change it to
atomic64_t to provide this safety.
