initramfs: prevent initramfs printk message being split by messages from other code.
initramfs uses printk without a linefeed, then does some work, then uses printk to finish the message off. However if some other code does a printk in between, then the messages get mixed together. Better for each message to be an independent line... Example of problem that this fixes: checking if image is initramfs...<7>Switched to high resolution mode on CPU 1 Switched to high resolution mode on CPU 0 it is Signed-off-by: Simon Kitching <skitching@apache.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
