From: Maciej W. Rozycki <macro@xxxxxxxxxxx> commit 44d01fc86d952f5a8b8b32bdb4841504d5833d95 upstream. Update BusLogic driver's messaging system to use pr_cont() for continuation lines, bringing messy output: pci 0000:00:13.0: PCI->APIC IRQ transform: INT A -> IRQ 17 scsi: ***** BusLogic SCSI Driver Version 2.1.17 of 12 September 2013 ***** scsi: Copyright 1995-1998 by Leonard N.
