John Ogness ea308da119 printk: use printk_buffers for devkmsg
Replace the buffers in struct devkmsg_user with a struct
printk_buffers. This reduces the number of buffers to keep track of.

As a side-effect, @text_buf was 8kB large, even though it only
needed to be the max size of a ringbuffer record. By switching to
struct printk_buffers, ~7kB less memory is allocated when opening
/dev/kmsg.

And since struct printk_buffers will be used now, reduce duplicate
code by calling printk_get_next_message() to handle the record
reading and formatting.

Note that since /dev/kmsg never suppresses records based on
loglevel, printk_get_next_message() is extended with an extra
bool argument to specify if suppression is allowed.
