The main reason that made me do this patch series is to identify the lack
of KERN_CONT at the media subsystem.
The grep I'm using to identify missing KERN_CONT lines actually tests
for a string line that doesn't end with "\n", like:
$ git grep '("' drivers/media/|grep -v KERN_|grep -v '\\n'|grep -v MODULE
That's said, the format strings don't hurt grep:
$ git grep -E "driver=.*bus=.*device_caps="
drivers/media/v4l2-core/v4l2-ioctl.c: pr_cont("driver=%.*s, card=%.*s, bus=%.*s, version=0x%08x, capabilities=0x%08x, device_caps=0x%08x\n",

Yeah, but it gives a bad coding style example. I prefer to have the core
subsystem as close as possible of the coding style I would like to see
at the drivers code I review. Btw, at least on my 1920x1050 monitor,
if I open a console full screen, only one line of v4l2-ioctl.c is bigger
than the terminal column size.

Yeah, I was also thinking that there would be a way less places than
what it was hit by this script.
The script on this patch is generic enough to be used to fix such cases
on other subsystems, although it needs some polish to cover a few corner
cases. I suspect it shouldn't be hard to integrate it to checkpatch.pl
to be used with --fix.
Thanks,
