I'd rather have the dozen or so single-line newline additions than the multiple hundreds to thousands of changes that are still going to be required to get KERN_CONT to work properly kernel-wide. Many arch specific printks still have to be fixed for this new KERN_CONT style. sparc, powerpc, arm, arm64, and others. Multiple dozens to hundreds of drivers too.
