netif_napi_add() could report an error like this below due to it allows to pass a format string for wildcarding before calling dev_get_valid_name(),
"netif_napi_add() called with weight 256 on device eth%d" For example, hns_enet_drv module does this. hns_nic_try_get_ae hns_nic_init_ring_data netif_napi_add register_netdev dev_get_valid_name Hence, make it a bit more human-readable.
