So you basically want to have one more con_msg_format_flags? Do
you want to track a context which prints out a messages or the
context which "generated" the message? A CPU/task that stores
a logbuf entry - vprintk_emit() - is not always the same as the
CPU/task that prints it to consoles - console_unlock().
