[PATCH 1/2] printk: Refactor processing of line severity tokens

[Nick Andrew <nick@nick-andrew.net>]

printk: Refactor processing of line severity tokens

Restructure the logic of vprintk() so the processing of the leading
3 characters of each input line is in one place, regardless whether
printk_time is enabled. This makes the code smaller and easier to
understand.
