    ve/printk: fix __vprintk_emit after rebase to RHEL7.3 beta
    
    1. In case of ENOMEM from log_state_init do:
      a) reset logbuf_cpu as we are just about to unlock logbuf_lock
      b) unlock logbuf_lock
      c) enable lockdep back
      d) restore irqs
    same as in the end before if (!in_sched) but we don't want to enter
    these if-block with log variable uninitialized, so goto does not fit
    well.
    
    2. Take logbuf_lock and disable interrupts before operating
    with log
    
    3. Also move our log wake up into if (!in_sched) if-block as when
    called from printk_deferred, __vprintk_emit should not call up(),
    that can lead to deadlock on scheduler rq locks.
    
    Those changes are needed after commit 458df9fd4815 ("printk: remove
    separate printk_sched buffers and use printk buf instead")
    
    Note: now we do not use ve_printk from scheduler but in future
    we might need some kind of ve_printk_deferred for it.
