Subject[PATCH printk-rework 05/14] printk: introduce CONSOLE_LOG_MAX for improved multi-line support
Date
Instead of using "LOG_LINE_MAX + PREFIX_MAX" for temporary buffer
sizes, introduce CONSOLE_LOG_MAX. This represents the maximum size
that is allowed to be printed to the console for a single record.

Rather than setting CONSOLE_LOG_MAX to "LOG_LINE_MAX + PREFIX_MAX"
(1024), increase it to 4096. With a larger buffer size, multi-line
records that are nearly LOG_LINE_MAX in length will have a better
chance of being fully printed. (When formatting a record for the
console, each line of a multi-line record is prepended with a copy
of the prefix.)
