[PATCH] printk from userspace
The patch allows userspace to issue printk's, via sys_syslog().
The main use of this is within hpa's klibc - initial userspace needs a
way of logging information and this API allows that information to be
captured into the printk ringbuffer. It ends up in /var/log/messages.
Messages are truncated at 1024 characters by printk's vsprintf().
Requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN.
