printk: fix possible printk overrun 

printk recursion detection prepends message to printk_buf and offsets
printk_buf when actual message is printed but it forgets to trim buffer
length accordingly. This can result in overrun in extreme cases. Fix it.

[ mingo@elte.hu:

  bug was introduced by me via:
