When commit 5becfb1df5ac8e49 ("kmsg: merge continuation records while printing") introduced LOG_PREFIX, we used KERN_DEFAULT etc. as a flag for setting LOG_PREFIX in order to tell whether to call cont_add() (i.e. whether to append the message to "struct cont"). But since commit 4bcc595ccd80decb ("printk: reinstate KERN_CONT for printing continuation lines") inverted the behavior (i.e. don't append the message to "struct cont" unless KERN_CONT is specified) and commit 5aa068ea4082b39e ("printk: remove games with previous record flags") removed the last LOG_PREFIX check, setting LOG_PREFIX via KERN_DEFAULT etc. is no longer meaningful. Therefore, we can remove LOG_PREFIX and make KERN_DEFAULT empty string.
