This is exactly how it can be used, and there is much precedent for this now. >> - printk("Don't know how to access card memory!\n"); >> + pr_info("Don't know how to access card memory!\n"); > > No, this is pr_err.

If we want to mark this as KERN_ERR or whatever, that's entirely a seperate change. I think your objections to Joe's changes are completely uncalled for and his changes were good ones. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-m68k" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
