I don't think this is a printk() issue per se, so I think Option B is
the only option. You should not get stuck in an infinite loop if we run
short on memory. Perhaps we could have an Option C which would exit
this loop gracefully with some kind of error. But I haven't looked at
the surrounding code to be sure if that is possible.
