[PATCH POC 3/4] printk: Flush the cont buffer after the other lines

[Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.com>]

The cont buffer is not longer blocked until the rest of
the line is stored. Instead, the remaining part of the line
is printed from the ring buffer in the normal cycle.

Therefore console_cont_flush() always prints only
the very last line and it makes sense to call it
after the main cycle.

Note that it is safe to modify exclusive_console
and console_locked variables without the logbuf_lock.
They both are primary synchronized by the console_sem.
