Just a nit: not sure if we want that much code within declarations ?

Splitting declarations and non-trivial initial assignments might be a
bit clearer in this case.

printk returns an integer, perhaps this macro should take it into
account ?

The usual coding style for those define (using tabs to end lines):

#define printk_in_rcu(fmt, ...)    \
do {                               \
   ....                            \
} while (0)

Same as above: printk_ratelimit returns an integer.

Thanks,
