printk: rename cpulock functions
Since the printk cpulock is CPU-reentrant and since it is used
in all contexts, its usage must be carefully considered and
most likely will require programming locklessly. To avoid
mistaking the printk cpulock as a typical lock, rename it to
cpu_sync. The main functions then become:
printk_cpu_sync_get_irqsave(flags);
printk_cpu_sync_put_irqrestore(flags);
Add extra notes of caution in the function description to help
developers understand the requirements for correct usage.
