Add newline to last pr_info to force dmesg to flush

dmesg only flushes when it encounter a newline. Without a newline, the line
is held in memory pending another printk. In this particular example
(example_atomic.c), the last pr_info in atomic_bitwise() prints when
another printk happens (either by another module, or __exit for this
module.

This can be confusing to new learner. This patch adds a newline to the last
pr_info forcing dmesg to print to the screen when the module is loaded.
