printk: initialize syslog_prev and console_prev
Two global variables, "syslog_prev" and "console_prev", maintain a
copy of the flags value used in the log record most recently
formatted for syslog or the console, respectively.
Initially there is no previous formatted log record, and these
variables simply have an initial value 0. And occasionally log
records can get consumed at a rate such that syslog or the console
can't keep up, in which case those variables (along with their
corresponding position variables) must be reset. Here too, they're
reset to 0.
This patch changes it so the initial value used is LOG_NEWLINE.
That is, if we know nothing about the prevously-formatted log
record, we can assume it was complete, and ended with a newline.
This is being done to support the next patch. Initializing
these variables this way makes LOG_NEWLINE and LOG_CONT be
mutually exclusive, and the next patch uses that fact to simplify
some logic.
