From 04d2c8c83d0e3ac5f78aeede51babb3236200112 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joe Perches Date: Mon, 30 Jul 2012 14:40:17 -0700 Subject: printk: convert the format for KERN_ to a 2 byte pattern Instead of "<.>", use an ASCII SOH for the KERN_ prefix initiator. This saves 1 byte per printk, thousands of bytes in a normal kernel. No output changes are produced as vprintk_emit converts these uses to "<.>".
