Subject: [PATCH v2 02/14] printk: use saved timestamp for temporarily buffered message

If a message has been buffered, always use the saved timestamp reflecting
the actual occurrence of the message. (There is no reason to use a
possibly later timestamp.)

This is a rather small change that could be folded into the next patch
which changes cont_flush() a bit more. However, this way we have one
patch per logical change.
