Replace printing to magically sized temporal buffer with use of KERN_CONT for 
continual printing of eeprom registers dump.

Since deb_info is defined as dprintk, which is defined as printk without 
additional parameters, meaning that deb_info is equivalent to direct printk 
(without KERN_ facility), we can use KERN_DEBUG and KERN_CONT in there, 
eliminating the need for sprintf into temporal buffer with not easily 
readable/magical size.

Though it's strange, that deb_info definition uses printk without KERN_ 
facility and callers don't use it either.

I do not see better solution for the magical sized buffer, since print_hex_dump 
like functions need dump of registers in memory (so the magical sized temporal 
buffer would be needed for a copy anyway).
If deb_info was defined with inside KERN_ facility, then this patch would not 
be valid and so the magically sized temporal buffer might be acceptable to keep 
there.

This patch depends on 'af9015: fix stack corruption bug' patch.
