One more nit.
Since you are printing the sync time anyway, there is a little sense to
split the message using pr_cont() that may be messed up with by any
intervening messages, so why don't you just print a one-line
pr_info("Filesystems sync: %d.%03d seconds\n", ...) message?
Also, if you change it here, I guess it would be consistent to make an
analogous change for hibernation.
