I am afraid that only some testing or real life experience might tell
us what number is good enough.
The good thing is that it could only be better than the current
state when we have only one cont buffer.
Also I would not be so much afraid of the per-cpu buffer. We already
use 16kB per-CPU for printk_safe and printk_nmi. One more kB should
no be that big deal.
