Right now print_stack_trace prints timestamp twice, the first time
it's done by printk when printing spaces, the second - by print_ip_sym.
As a result, stack traces in KASAN reports have double timestamps:
[   18.822232] Allocated by task 3838:
[   18.822232]  [   18.822232] [<ffffffff8107e236>] save_stack_trace+0x16/0x20
[   18.822232]  [   18.822232] [<ffffffff81509bd6>] save_stack+0x46/0xd0
[   18.822232]  [   18.822232] [<ffffffff81509e4b>] kasan_kmalloc+0xab/0xe0
....

Fix by calling printk only once.

Right, since commit 4bcc595ccd80 ("printk: reinstate KERN_CONT for printing continuation lines")
printk requires KERN_CONT to continue log messages, and print_ip_sym() doesn't have it.

After a small nit bellow fixed:

There is another similar case in lockdep's print_lock:

print_lock_name(lock_classes + class_idx - 1);
printk(", at: ");
print_ip_sym(hlock->acquire_ip);

This used to be a single line, but now 3.

[  131.449807] swapper/2/0 is trying to acquire lock:
[  131.449859]  (&port_lock_key){-.-...}, at: [<c036a6dc>]
serial8250_console_write+0x108/0x134

vs:

[  337.270069] syz-executor/3125 is trying to acquire lock:
[  337.270069]  ([  337.270069] rtnl_mutex

[  337.270069] [<ffffffff86b3d34c>] rtnl_lock+0x1c/0x20


printk(", at: "); requires KERN_CONT.
But should we add KERN_CONT to print_ip_sym instead of duplicating it
everywhere? Or add print_ip_sym_cont?
