From 22f69825778f992ff98ed100252bf5e00a15d9d1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Karel Zak <kzak@redhat.com>
Date: Wed, 31 Aug 2011 12:28:39 +0200
Subject: [PATCH] dmesg: fix for non-CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME kernels

 * dmesg(1) incorrectly assumes that lines like "<6>\n"
   are broken.

 * it's more robust to assume the end of the record is "\n<"

 * print \n for empty lines
