Unfortunately there are just, flat-out, way too many kernel messages at

often overflow the printk buffer before you boot up to a useful userland
that can record the dmesg.

The IO-APIC code is a _major_ offender in this area, but the CPU code is
right up there as well.


How about the configurable log buffer size patch? I think Andrew still has
that amongst his wares.

It's in mainline. That's no excuse for the voluminous logs, though... I'm a "1-2 lines per module" type of person :)
