printk: move dictionary keys to dev_printk_info
Dictionaries are only used for SUBSYSTEM and DEVICE properties. The current implementation stores the property names each time they are used. This requires more space than otherwise necessary. Also, because the dictionary entries are currently considered optional, it cannot be relied upon that they are always available, even if the writer wanted to store them. These issues will increase should new dictionary properties be introduced. Rather than storing the subsystem and device properties in the dict ring, introduce a struct dev_printk_info with separate fields to store only the property values. Embed this struct within the struct printk_info to provide guaranteed availability.
