>Description:
Panic messages are sometimes garbled in syzkaller reports, such as this one:

[ 388.47pmap58845] panic: _get_physpage: out of memory

https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?id=5458c4ca59f15645a6a7a035a3399b7b1cb18714

Somehow part of the message `pmap_get_physpage: out of memory' has appeared in the middle of the dmesg timestamp, and _before_ the text `panic: ', even though the logic in subr_prf.c is serialized by a mutex and prints `panic: ' first:

    265 	kprintf_lock();
    266 	kprintf_internal("panic: ", TOLOG|TOCONS, NULL, NULL);
    267 	if (panicstr == NULL) {
    268 		/* first time in panic - store fmt first for precaution */
    269 		panicstr = fmt;
    270 
    271 		vsnprintf(scratchstr, sizeof(scratchstr), fmt, ap);
    272 		kprintf_internal("%s", TOLOG|TOCONS, NULL, NULL, scratchstr);
    273 		panicstr = scratchstr;
    274 	} else {
    275 		kprintf(fmt, TOLOG|TOCONS, NULL, NULL, ap);
    276 	}
    277 	kprintf_internal("\n", TOLOG|TOCONS, NULL, NULL);
    278 	kprintf_unlock();
