Explicitly print the VMSA dump at KERN_DEBUG log level, KERN_CONT uses KERNEL_DEFAULT if the previous log line has a newline, i.e. if there's nothing to continuing, and as a result the VMSA gets dumped when it shouldn't. The KERN_CONT documentation says it defaults back to KERNL_DEFAULT if the previous log line has a newline. So switch from KERN_CONT to print_hex_dump_debug(). Jarkko pointed this out in reference to the original patch. See: https://lore.kernel.org/all/YuPMeWX4uuR1Tz3M@xxxxxxxxxx/ print_hex_dump(KERN_DEBUG, ...) was pointed out there, but print_hex_dump_debug() should similar.
