I understand. All I wanted to say is that KERN_UNSUPRESSED is
per-message, while the most interesting (and actually broken)
cases, IMHO, are per-context, IOW things like this one

	console_loglevel = NEW
	foo()
	  dump_stack()
	     printk
	     ...
	     printk
	console_loglevel = OLD

KERN_UNSUPRESSED does not help here. We probably can't convert
dump_stack() to KERN_UNSUPRESSED.

Sure.
