Agreed. v2 will include printk.h first.

Generally kernel code uses the console flags directly. A quick check for
CON_ENABLED shows direct flag queries all over:

$ git grep -l -e 'flags.*& .*CON_ENABLED' | wc -c
16

Are you suggesting I replace this usage in all of these files? Or just
the one macro in console.h for now? And since there are 6 more console
flags, they should probably also have equivalent wrappers?

Thanks.
