This commit message is a little confusing, it doesn't mention that this is to do
with the dump of the kernel memory layout during boot. I presume the motivation
is the missing time stamps when built with CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME.

Why add an entry for the vectors? They live in the text section, so this memory
is already covered. Adding it like this means the list is out of order.

It is probably better to put the splitting of pr_cont() into one per line in a
separate patch to adding new rows.

0x780? Shouldn't this be 0x800, or better SZ_2K?
