I think this patch needs a better explanation. It looks to me that
it's simply a bug fix, because every printk that is not a continuation
of a previous printk needs a KERN_* line. In that case, it should
just get applied as a bug fix independent of the other patches.

However, if you sometimes don't have a newline after the previous
printk, this patch is actually wrong and should not get applied at
all.
