From: Christian Borntraeger <borntrae...@de.ibm.com>

KVM on s390 does not support the ESA/390 architecture. We refuse to 
change the architecture mode and print a warning. While testing a
crashme for kvm, I spotted two problems with the printk:

o A malicious can flood host dmesg
o There was no newline at the end of the printk

This patch fixes both problems.
