Subject[PATCH v3] arch/x86: get rid of KERN_CONT in show_fault_oops()
Date
From: Dmitry Vyukov <dvyukov@google.com>

KERN_CONT leads to split lines in kernel output
and complicates useful changes to printk like
printing context before each line.

Only acceptable use of continuations is basically
boot-time testing.

Get rid of it.

Also tidy up code around as asked by reviewers.

Changes since v1:
- use pr_alert() instead of printk(KERN_ALERT)

Changes since v2:
- drop unnecessary parenthesis
- remove once used nx_warning and smep_warning
