Note, my selftests require synchronous printing, so I hope this feature
still allows locations to force that without being in oops mode. The
tracing selftests can cause triple faults, and seeing where it happened
is a must. I already had issues once when printk changed (temporarily)
to only dump out lines when a \n was seen. That caused me to think the
wrong test was rebooting the box.
