I believe this is a layer added by syslogd or klogd in userspace, rather than at the kernel level. If your kernel module spews enough data through kprint(), you will overflow the dmesg buffer, and the resulting corruption will likely make syslogd/klogd flood mitigation fail that much faster. -- "It seems the power has been robbed from the founding fathers and is now firmly in the hand of the funding fathers." -- Rik van Riel
