The patch titled
Subject: printk: guard the amount written per line by devkmsg_read()
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
printk-guard-the-amount-written-per-line-by-devkmsg_read.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

From: Tejun Heo <tj@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: printk: guard the amount written per line by devkmsg_read()
This patchset updates netconsole so that it can emit messages with the
same header as used in /dev/kmsg which gives neconsole receiver full
log information which enables things like structured logging and
detection of lost messages.
This patch (of 7):
devkmsg_read() uses 8k buffer and assumes that the formatted output
message won't overrun which seems safe given LOG_LINE_MAX, the current use
of dict and the escaping method being used; however, we're planning to use
devkmsg formatting wider and accounting for the buffer size properly isn't
that complicated.
This patch defines CONSOLE_EXT_LOG_MAX as 8192 and updates devkmsg_read()
so that it limits output accordingly.
