The following commit made console open fails while booting:
commit b50989dc44
Author: Alan Cox <alan@linux.intel.com>

tty: make the kref destructor occur asynchronously
Due to tty release routines run in a workqueue now, error like the
following will be reported while booting:
INIT open /dev/console Input/output error
It also causes hibernation regression to appear as reported at
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14229
The reason is that now there's latency issue with closing, but when
we open a "closing not finished" tty, -EIO will be returned.
Fix it as per the following Alan's suggestion:
Fun but it's actually not a bug and the fix is wrong in itself as
the port may be closing but not yet being destructed, in which case
it seems to do the wrong thing. Opening a tty that is closing (and
could be closing for long periods) is supposed to return -EIO.
I suspect a better way to deal with this and keep the old console
timing is to split tty->shutdown into two functions.
tty->shutdown() - called synchronously just before we dump the tty
onto the waitqueue for destruction
tty->cleanup() - called when the destructor runs.
We would then do the shutdown part which can occur in IRQ context
fine, before queueing the rest of the release (from tty->magic = 0
... the end) to occur asynchronously
The USB update in -next would then need a call like
if (tty->cleanup)
tty->cleanup(tty);
at the top of the async function and the USB shutdown to be split
between shutdown and cleanup as the USB resource cleanup and final
tidy cannot occur synchronously as it needs to sleep.
In other words the logic becomes
final kref put
make object unfindable
async
clean it up

Commit 3d5b6fb47a ("ACPI: Kill overly
verbose "power state" log messages") removed the actual use of this
variable, but didn't remove the variable itself, resulting in build
warnings like
drivers/acpi/processor_idle.c: In function ‘acpi_processor_power_init’:
drivers/acpi/processor_idle.c:1169: warning: unused variable ‘i’
Just get rid of the now unused variable.

But leave TTM code alone, something is fishy there with global vm_ops

I was recently lucky enough to get a 64-CPU system, so my kernel log
ends up with 64 lines like:
ACPI: CPU0 (power states: C1[C1] C2[C3])
This is pretty useless clutter because this info is already available
after boot from both /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpuidle/state?/ as
well as /proc/acpi/processor/CPU*/power.
So just delete the code that prints the C-states in processor_idle.c.

This build failure triggers:
In file included from include/linux/suspend.h:8,
from arch/x86/kernel/asm-offsets_32.c:11,
from arch/x86/kernel/asm-offsets.c:2:
include/linux/mm.h:503:2: error: #error SECTIONS_WIDTH+NODES_WIDTH+ZONES_WIDTH > BITS_PER_LONG - NR_PAGEFLAGS
Because due to the hwpoison page flag we ran out of page
flags on 32-bit.
Dont turn on hwpoison on 32-bit NUMA (it's rare in any
case).
Also clean up the Kconfig dependencies in the generic MM
code by introducing ARCH_SUPPORTS_MEMORY_FAILURE.

The message "ACPI: Device needs an ACPI driver" is misleading. The
device _may_ need an ACPI driver, if the BIOS implemented a custom
API for the device in question (which, AFAIK, can't be checked.) If
not, then either a generic ACPI driver may be used (for example
"thermal"), or nothing can be done (other than a white list).
I propose to reword the message to:
ACPI: If an ACPI driver is available for this device, you should use
it instead of the native driver
which I think is more correct. Comments and suggestions welcome.
I also added a message warning about possible problems and system
instability when users pass acpi_enforce_resources=lax, as suggested
by Len.
