That's not true.  KERN_CONT is a no-op.
Bare printks interleave.

$ git grep KERN_CONT include/linux/kern_levels.h
include/linux/kern_levels.h:#define KERN_CONT   ""

I think it was like 2007 when I first suggested _not_ having
newlines on the pr_<level> macros that were eventually added
by Emil Medve.
