Subject[PATCH 11/11] dynamic_debug: use a single printk() to emit msgs
From: Jason Baron <jbaron@redhat.com>

We were using KERN_CONT to combine msgs with their prefix. However,
KERN_CONT is not smp safe, in the sense that it can interleave messages.
This interleaving can result in printks coming out at the wrong loglevel.
With the high frequency of printks, which dynamic debug can produce, this
is not desirable.

Thus, make dynamic_emit_prefix(), fill a char buf[64], instead
of doing a printk directly. If we enable printing out of
function, module, line, or pid info, they are placed in this
64 byte buffer. In my testing 64 bytes was enough size to fulfill
all requests. Even if its not, we can match up the printk itself
to see where its from, so to me this is no big deal.
