Another slight difference is that messages composed of LOG_CONT pieces
will trigger the tracepoint for each individual piece and _never_ as a
complete line.

It was never guaranteed that all LOG_CONT pieces make it into the final
printed line anyway, but with this change it will be guaranteed that
they are always handled separately.

I am OK with this change, but like Steven, I agree the the users of that
tracepoint need to chime in.

Acked-by: John Ogness <john.ogness@linutronix.de>

The ongoing printbuf/seq_buf work [0] will hopefully someday do away
with LOG_CONT altogether.

John
