I will correct them and resubmit.

I wrestled with that when I did the conversion, The reason I did not
Do that is when I check other drivers very few do it that way, most do
It the way I do it or actually hard code the module name to be printed.
And since the original objection was that DPRINT seems to implement it's
own logging I did not want to re-implement the pr_XXX calls with this layer
of indirection which almost looks like I am going down the path of DPRINT
again.

So what is the general consensus. The current way I implemented it seems
to be how other drivers use it to.

Hank.
