When dumping struct page information, __dump_page() prints the page type
with a trailing blank followed by the page flags on a separate line:
anon
flags: 0x100000000090034(uptodate|lru|active|head|swapbacked)
Fix this by using pr_cont() instead of pr_warn() to get a single line:
anon flags: 0x100000000090034(uptodate|lru|active|head|swapbacked)

This is the case if PageAnon || PageKsm || mapping. If it is, say,
PageSlab then we effectively do
pr_warn("stuff-with-no-newline");
pr_cont("\n");
pr_cont("flags: ...\n");
does this work OK? what facility level will that "flags: " line get?
I don't see a "\n" in the "mapping" case but the
if (mapping->host && mapping->host->i_dentry.first)
pr_warn("name:\"%pd\" ", dentry)
would end up on a new line.
Ugh. I guess the dentry name could be fairly long.
I guess I will just convert to using "\n".
AFAIK, there is no locking between pr_warn() and pr_cont() so the latter
could get appended to any facility level. But that isn't a problem I
plan to fix.
