commit 914d9d831e6126a6e7a92e27fcfaa250671be42c upstream.
While originally it was fine to format strings using "%pOF" while
holding devtree_lock, this now causes a deadlock. Lockdep reports:
of_get_parent from of_fwnode_get_parent+0x18/0x24
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
of_fwnode_get_parent from fwnode_count_parents+0xc/0x28
fwnode_count_parents from fwnode_full_name_string+0x18/0xac
fwnode_full_name_string from device_node_string+0x1a0/0x404
device_node_string from pointer+0x3c0/0x534
pointer from vsnprintf+0x248/0x36c
vsnprintf from vprintk_store+0x130/0x3b4
Fix this by moving the printing in __of_changeset_entry_apply() outside
the lock. As the only difference in the multiple prints is the action
name, use the existing "action_names" to refactor the prints into a
single print.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
