Does printk() offer any guarantees about getting all the characters
from a single printk() call out to the console without interleaving
with messages from printk() calls on other cpus?  If it does, then
it would be a good idea to sprintf() the parts of this message to
a buffer and then use one printk() call.  I think I read that netconsole
ends up with one packet on the wire for each call to printk().

Trying to parse output jumbled together from multiple cpus
doesn't sound like fun.
