From 8599dc7dec874b137384714bfe3ddbbf5d4a614e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Petr Mladek Date: Wed, 27 Jun 2018 17:06:41 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] printk: Clean up syslog_print_all() syslog_print_all() is called twice. Once with a valid buffer and once just to set the indexes. Both variants are already handled separately. This patch just makes it more obvious. It does not change the existing behavior.
