Hi ! i found there was a patch from tilmann schmidt at http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=114185850406627&w=2 some longer time ago. it was rejected for the reason that that it was patching deprecated code and instead dev_dbg(), dev_info(), and dev_err() should better be used.
unfortunately, i have few programming skills and would probably fail to succeed on porting this appropriately - if it was trivial somebody may have already done this. i can understand to some degree that getting rid of deprecated code is good thing, but since this patch is very small and unintrusive i think it`s an "better than nothing" approach. i`d like to give my vote for it. regards roland > -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- > Von: "Greg KH" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Gesendet: 07.01.08 04:19:24 > An: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > CC: linux-usb@vger.kernel.org > Betreff: Re: clutter in /var/log/messages (drivers/usb/serial/usb-serial.c) > > On Sat, Jan 05, 2008 at 12:41:16PM +0100, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > > > what`s the advantage of having this and not just "usb-serial:" instead ? > > can this probable be optimized (as most drivers only print "drivername:" > > anyway) ? > > Yes it should be cleaned up, patches gladly accepted to do so. > > thanks, > > greg k-h > ______________________________________________________________________________ Jetzt neu!
