Subject: [PATCH next v2 1/2] printk: avoid and/or handle record truncation

If a reader provides a buffer that is smaller than the message text,
the @text_len field of @info will have a value larger than the buffer
size. If readers blindly read @text_len bytes of data without
checking the size, they will read beyond their buffer.

Add this check to record_print_text() to properly recognize when such
truncation has occurred.

Add a maximum size argument to the ringbuffer function to extend
records so that records can not be created that are larger than the
buffer size of readers.

When extending records (LOG_CONT), do not extend records beyond
LOG_LINE_MAX since that is the maximum size available in the buffers
used by consoles and syslog.

Fixes: f5f022e53b87 ("printk: reimplement log_cont using record extension")
