Run into this while testing Ubuntu-5.4.0-22.26 from master-next, and my kernel
log got spammed with
> testing the buffer
messages (every few seconds with a burst of ~10 such messages).

This was introduced with the update to Linux 5.4.29, which included
"net/bpfilter: fix dprintf usage for /dev/kmsg"
[ Upstream commit 13d0f7b814d9b4c67e60d8c2820c86ea181e7d99 ]
Introducing a test message by mistake. Dave's net tree applied already a patch
which drops this testing message again[0][1].
While I sent out a mail to request the followup being backported too, and thus
this should come in sooner or later here via the 5.4 updates anyway I decided
to post it directly for applying here too, as the kernel freeze is upcoming
very soon (and the upstream stable release including this could be thus to
late).

Applied to focal/master-next and unstable/master, thanks!
