John Ogness e7c1fe2104 printk: ringbuffer: avoid memcpy() on state_var
@state_var is copied as part of the descriptor copying via
memcpy(). This is not allowed because @state_var is an atomic type,
which in some implementations may contain a spinlock.

Avoid using memcpy() with @state_var by explicitly copying the other
fields of the descriptor. @state_var is set using atomic set
operator before returning.
