Hi Michal

I think the show_node to show_zone_node renaming is superfluous,
but if it makes you happy, it doesn't bother me.

This recent change to printk logging making KERN_CONT necessary to
continue a line might be reverted when it's better known just how
many instances in the kernel tree will need to be changed.

For now, I'd rather keep the KERN_CONT "\n" and trailing "\n" as
there are _very_ few missing newlines in logging messages today
and removing them now might be a bit early process-wise.

Dunno.
