arm64: remove pr_cont abuse from mem_init
All the lines printed by mem_init are independent, with each ending with a newline. While they logically form a large block, none are actually continuations of previous lines. The kernel-side printk code and the userspace demsg tool differ in their handling of KERN_CONT following a newline, and while this isn't always a problem kernel-side, it does cause difficulty for userspace. Using pr_cont causes the userspace tool to not print line prefix (e.g. timestamps) even when following a newline, mis-aligning the output and making it harder to read, e.g. [ 0.000000] Virtual kernel memory layout: [ 0.000000] modules : 0xffff000000000000 - 0xffff000008000000 ( 128 MB) vmalloc : 0xffff000008000000 - 0xffff7dffbfff0000 (129022 GB) .text : 0xffff000008080000 - 0xffff0000088b0000 ( 8384 KB) .rodata : 0xffff0000088b0000 - 0xffff000008c50000 ( 3712 KB) .init : 0xffff000008c50000 - 0xffff000008d50000 ( 1024 KB) .data : 0xffff000008d50000 - 0xffff000008e25200 ( 853 KB) .bss : 0xffff000008e25200 - 0xffff000008e6bec0 ( 284 KB) fixed : 0xffff7dfffe7fd000 - 0xffff7dfffec00000 ( 4108 KB) PCI I/O : 0xffff7dfffee00000 - 0xffff7dffffe00000 ( 16 MB) vmemmap : 0xffff7e0000000000 - 0xffff800000000000 ( 2048 GB maximum) 0xffff7e0000000000 - 0xffff7e0026000000 ( 608 MB actual) memory : 0xffff800000000000 - 0xffff800980000000 ( 38912 MB) [ 0.000000] SLUB: HWalign=64, Order=0-3, MinObjects=0, CPUs=6, Nodes=1 Fix this by using pr_notice consistently for all lines, which both the kernel and userspace are happy with.
