This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

    drivers-core: make structured logging play nice with dynamic-debug

to my driver-core git tree which can be found at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core.git
in the driver-core-linus branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree
(usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the
next -rc kernel release.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: drivers-core: make structured logging play nice with dynamic-debug

commit c4e00daaa96d3a0786f1f4fe6456281c60ef9a16 changed __dev_printk
in a way that broke dynamic-debug's ability to control the dynamic
prefix of dev_dbg(dev,..), but not dev_dbg(NULL,..) or pr_debug(..),
which is why it wasnt noticed sooner.

When dev==NULL, __dev_printk() just calls printk(), which just works.
But otherwise, it assumed that level was always a string like "<L>"
and just plucked out the 'L', ignoring the rest.  However,
dynamic_emit_prefix() adds "[tid] module:func:line:" to the string,
those additions all got lost.
