Console might be only 80 columns. When we have to check from screen capture of
crash, triggering needless newlines due to occupying columns more than needed
will not be nice. Also, syzbot has file size limit for saving console output.
Wasting with needless spaces increases possibility of loosing past lines.
Given that said, do you still want to waste precious columns with spaces?

CONFIG_DEBUG_AID_FOR_SYZBOT is currently linux-next only option.
This feature will be useful for non-syzbot environments.
