Hi again Lance.

Perhaps this would be better just using dev_printk
instead of snprintf into a prefix with printk to
emulate dev_printk.

Also, perhaps KERN_NOTICE is preferable to KERN_WARNING
in the CORRECTABLE case.

Maybe something like:

        const char *level = KERN_ERR;
        if (aer_severity == AER_CORRECTABLE)
                level = KERN_NOTICE;

        ...

        dev_printk(level, &dev->dev, etc...);

Maybe do this after this series of patches is accepted.
Enough with the revisions for awhile...
