Log message fragments used to be printed on one line but now get split 
up. Fix this. Also, suppress log spam that merely prints known pointer 
values.

Any particular reason why you didn't use pr_debug() here? I'm guessing 
it's because this is not a known pointer value?


It's because the call to psc_debug_dump() is already conditional on #ifdef 
DEBUG_PSC.

Having the printk conditional on both DEBUG and DEBUG_PSC would be 
annoying. And I didn't want an unconditional call to psc_debug_dump() 
because I think PSC_DEBUG could become more useful given that PSC support 
is woefully incomplete.

Generally, I like to avoid pr_debug(). But printk() now works differently, 
and now I have to avoid pr_cont(). And if I can avoid pr_cont() then it 
actually makes sense to use pr_debug().
