Which is the absolutely wrong thing to do. Structured logging and racy
printk continuation must never be mixed. Userspace needs to be sure
that dictionary entries are not subject to racy continuation hackery,
and that these mwssages atomic, whole and intact.

Please do not mix the both and do not apply these patches.
