In order to support storage of continuous lines, dataless records must
be allowed. For example, these are generated with the legal calls:

    pr_info("");
    pr_cont("\n");

Currently dataless records are denoted by INVALID_LPOS in order to
recognize failed prb_reserve() calls. Change the code to use two
different identifiers (FAILED_LPOS and NO_LPOS) to distinguish
between failed prb_reserve() records and successful dataless records.
