one printk call ends up in logbuf as a single entry and, thus, we print
it to the serial console in one shot (what is the correct english word
to use here?). multiple printks result in multiple logbuf entries, and
printks from other CPUs can mix in.
so the difference is:
CPU0 CPU1
printk(foo\n)
printk(..isolated_anon\n...isolated_file\n...)
printk(bar\n)
vs
CPU0 CPU1
printk(..isolated_anon\n)
printk(foo\n)
printk(...isolated_file\n)
printk(bar\n)
printk(...\n)
not the same thing.
and the slower the serial console is the more messages potentially
can appear between "..isolated_anon\n" and "...isolated_file\n".
