Any record with a trailing newline (LOG_NEWLINE flag) cannot
be continued because the newline has been stripped and will
not be visible if the message is appended. This was already
handled correctly when committing in log_output() but was
not handled correctly when committing in log_store().

make clang-analyzer on x86_64 defconfig caught my attention with:

  kernel/printk/printk_ringbuffer.c:885:3: warning:
  Value stored to 'desc' is never read [clang-analyzer-deadcode.DeadStores]

		desc = to_desc(desc_ring, head_id);
		^

Commit b6cf8b3f3312 ("printk: add lockless ringbuffer") introduced
desc_reserve() with this unneeded dead-store assignment.

As discussed with John Ogness privately, this is probably just some minor
left-over from previous iterations of the ringbuffer implementation. So,
simply remove this unneeded dead assignment to make clang-analyzer happy.

As compilers will detect this unneeded assignment and optimize this anyway,
the resulting object code is identical before and after this change.

No functional change. No change to object code.

<title>printk: ringbuffer: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array member</title>

<content type='text'>
There is a regular need in the kernel to provide a way to declare having a
dynamically sized set of trailing elements in a structure. Kernel code should
always use “flexible array members”[1] for these cases. The older style of
one-element or zero-length arrays should no longer be used[2].

data_realloc() returns wrong data pointer when the block is wrapped and
the size is not increased. It might happen when pr_cont() wants to
add only few characters and there is already a space for them because
of alignment.

It might cause writing outsite the buffer. It has been detected by LTP
tests with KASAN enabled:
