I don't think it's a printk stuff.

In general, when developers add some printk()/pr_info() to print some message in the kernel, they expect this message will be printed in time.
So most of the printk()/pr_info() calls in current kernel accompany a '\n' at the end.

And printk() will also print message to 'console' by default, console could be a serial port(ttyS0) or tty1 etc.
