A side note,
So this brings the question:


#define PATH_MAX 4096

static char kernfs_pr_cont_buf[PATH_MAX];

void pr_cont_kernfs_path(struct kernfs_node *kn)
{
...
if (sz >= sizeof(kernfs_pr_cont_buf)) {
pr_cont("(name too long)");
goto out;
}

pr_cont("%s", kernfs_pr_cont_buf);
...
}

Do we still want to limit printk line to 1024?
There are functions that want longer lines (e.g. kernel boot command
line).
