If reasonably possible it is best to avoid use of pr_cont().

If there are concurrent writes from multiple cpu I believe
the writes still get separated.
(Something has to give...)

For instance I've seen concurrent 'oops' generate the list of
loaded modules one module per line with the two lists interleaved!

Quite often one of the %p[A-Z] modifiers can help.
