Sometimes we use seq_buf to format a string buffer, which we then pass to printk(). However, in certain situations the seq_buf string buffer can get too big, exceeding the PRINTKRB_RECORD_MAX bytes limit, and causing printk() to truncate the string. Add a new seq_buf helper. This helper prints the seq_buf string buffer line by line, using \n as a delimiter, rather than passing the whole string buffer to printk() at once.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
