The error message is not printed immediately because it does not end with
a newline character.

Before:
root@localhost:~# insmod vmlinux.ko
insmod: ERROR: could not insert module vmlinux.ko: Invalid parameters

After:
root@localhost:~# insmod vmlinux.ko
[   43.982558] livepatch: vmlinux.ko: invalid module name
insmod: ERROR: could not insert module vmlinux.ko: Invalid parameters

Fixes: dcf550e52f56 ("livepatch: Disallow vmlinux.ko")

Great catch! The message is not pushed to the console because
the line is not finished and might be eventually extended by pr_cont().

Reviewed-by: Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.com>

The fix is trivial. I have pushed it into livepatching/livepatching.git,
branch for-6.1/fixes.

Best Regards,
Petr
