commit c9f64d1fc101c64ea2be1b2e562b4395127befc9 upstream.
When dumping the name and NTP servers advertised by DHCP, a blank line is emitted if either of the lists is empty. This can lead to confusing issues such as the blank line getting flagged as warning. This happens because the blank line is the result of pr_cont("\n") and that may see its level corrupted by some other driver concurrently writing to the console.
Fix this by making sure that the terminating newline is only emitted if at least one entry in the lists was printed before.
