Since you're fiddling in e820 anyway, can you fix places like
e820_print_map() so they use the %pR format?  I think it'd be
cleaner if e820_print_type() just returned a string pointer
rather than calling printk directly.  Then we'd only need a
single printk per region and wouldn't need the KERN_CONT junk.
