Reformat the printk() calls removing leading new-line characters, making
output being done line-by-line rather than partially and defining the log
level used.

The new code builds fine; no semantic changes.

It should really be done in userspace. And ripped from the kernel.

The output is useful when debugging boot problems on systems whose
rootfs is on the network. So I think the patch is ok.

However, it would be useful to make the parameters available to
userspace for use by boot scripts etc. A proc file listing variables and
values in /bin/sh syntax would be easy to use. I've been meaning to do
this for ages so I'll roll a patch.
