Subject: [ 068/122] kmsg - properly print over-long continuation lines

From: Greg KH <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org>

3.5-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Kay Sievers <kay@...y.org>

commit 70498253186586e5dca7bc3ebd3415203b059fbc upstream.

Reserve PREFIX_MAX bytes in the LOG_LINE_MAX line when buffering a
continuation line, to be able to properly prefix the LOG_LINE_MAX
line with the syslog prefix and timestamp when printing it.
