Subject[PATCH] printk: Fix panic caused by passing log_buf_len to command line
Date
From: He Zhe <zhe.he@windriver.com>

log_buf_len_setup does not check input argument before passing it to
simple_strtoull. The argument would be a NULL pointer if "log_buf_len",
without its value, is set in command line and thus causes the following
panic.

PANIC: early exception 0xe3 IP 10:ffffffffaaeacd0d error 0 cr2 0x0

This patch adds a check to prevent the panic, adds KBUILD_MODNAME to
prints and correct bare use of 'unsigned'.
