I would prefer to take everything via the printk tree because
most changes are there. Otherwise, we might end up with non-necessary
cross-tree merge conflicts. Also I would know when all pieces are
there.

That said, this seems to be the only change in
kernel/debug/kdb/kdb_io.c and it is relatively independent.
So, it should not be a big problem to take it separately.
