printk: always use deferred printk when flush printk_safe lines

Browse Source 
Always use printk_deferred() in printk_safe_flush_line().
Flushing can be done from NMI or printk_safe contexts (when
we are in panic), so we can't call console drivers, yet still
want to store the messages in the logbuf buffer. Therefore we
use a deferred printk version.
