Subject: linux-next: build failure after merge of the vfs tree

Hi Al,

After merging the vfs tree, today's linux-next build (x86_64 allnoconfig)
failed like this:

fs/fs_context.c: In function 'logfc':
fs/fs_context.c:400:3: error: implicit declaration of function 'vprintk_emit'; did you mean 'dev_printk_emit'? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
   vprintk_emit(0, LOGLEVEL_WARNING, NULL, 0, fmt, va);
   ^~~~~~~~~~~~
   dev_printk_emit

Caused by commit

  e6d72ffc503f ("vfs: Implement logging through fs_context")

# CONFIG_PRINTK is not set

I added the following hack for today:
