We are pretty deep into the printk() code before we call local_clock() to
find out what timestamp to print. Would it be helpful to grab that much
earlier ... so it is closer to the time at which the code that called printk()?
This would make it more likely that messages would appear out of order,
but I think it would be better to know when things actually happened, not
when we got around to printing them.
