Currently, printk lines with a only KERN_PREFIX and a quoted string without a comma or close paren that exceed 80 columns are flagged with a warning. ie: printk(KERN_WARNING "some long string that extends beond 80 cols..." "and is continued on another line\n"); Allow this form instead of emitting a warning.
