I don't see a "\n" in the "mapping" case but the
if (mapping->host && mapping->host->i_dentry.first)
pr_warn("name:\"%pd\" ", dentry)
would end up on a new line.
Ugh. I guess the dentry name could be fairly long.
I guess I will just convert to using "\n".
AFAIK, there is no locking between pr_warn() and pr_cont() so the latter
could get appended to any facility level. But that isn't a problem I
plan to fix.
