Make a SMALL dmesg even smaller.
When compiled -DSMALL, dmesg does nothing at all with the kernel
timestamps (it processes no options to be told what would be the
user's desire) so make it truly do (almost) nothing, rather than
some botched partial processing of them.
The "almost" is that a SMALL dmesg will now ignore spaces at the
beginning of each new message line ... those are (vanishingly)
unlikely to occur, as the kernel puts the timestamp (which starts
with '[' there) - fixing this would have meant even more #ifdef's
as the code that ignores that leading space is the only remaining
thing that (in a SMALL) dmesg looks at the value of the "tstamp"
variable, and if we don't keep some use of it, gcc complains...
These changes affect only SMALL dmesg (as installed on boot
floppies, etc) and have no intended effect on the version that's
installed on a normal (full size) running system.
