If a call to panic() terminates the string with a \n , the result puts the closing brace ']---' on a newline because panic() itself adds \n too. Now, if one goes and removes the newline chars from all panic() invocations - and the stats right now look like this: ~300 calls with a \n ~500 calls without a \n one is destined to a neverending game of whack-a-mole because the usual thing to do is add a newline at the end of a string a function is supposed to print. Therefore, simply zap any \n at the end of the panic string to avoid touching so many places in the kernel.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
