Subject[PATCH 4.9 157/175] powerpc/xmon: Change printk() to pr_cont()
Date
From: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu>

commit 7c6c86b36a36dd4a13d30bba07718e767aa2e7a1 upstream.

Since some time now, printk() adds carriage return, leading to
unusable xmon output if there is no udbg backend available:

Use pr_cont() instead.
