By making it very ugly :)

	TP_printk("clnt %lu %s(tag = %d)\n%.8x: "
		"%02x %02x %02x %02x %02x %02x %02x %02x %02x "
		"%02x %02x %02x %02x %02x %02x %02x %02x %02x\n"
		"%.8x: "
		"%02x %02x %02x %02x %02x %02x %02x %02x %02x "
		"%02x %02x %02x %02x %02x %02x %02x %02x %02x\n",
		(long)__entry->clnt, show_9p_op(__entry->type),
		__entry->tag, 0,
		__entry->line1[0], __entry->line1[1],
		__entry->line1[2], __entry->line1[3],
		__entry->line1[4], __entry->line1[5],
		__entry->line1[6], __entry->line1[7],
		__entry->line1[8], __entry->line1[9],
		__entry->line1[10], __entry->line1[11],
		__entry->line1[12], __entry->line1[13],
		__entry->line1[14], __entry->line1[15],
		16,
		__entry->line2[0], __entry->line2[1],
		__entry->line2[2], __entry->line2[3],
		__entry->line2[4], __entry->line2[5],
		__entry->line2[6], __entry->line2[7],
		__entry->line2[8], __entry->line2[9],
		__entry->line2[10], __entry->line2[11],
		__entry->line2[12], __entry->line2[13],
		__entry->line2[14], __entry->line2[15])


Like I said, it's not pretty, but it saves buffer space and moves the
slow copy out of the fast path.
