This fixes an expanded printk(PFX KERN_INFO PFX foo) bug.

That the author "clearly prefers" is dubious.

The rest of the dprintk uses are undefined.

$ grep dprintk drivers/net/r8169.c
        dprintk("mac_version = 0x%02x\n", tp->mac_version);
                        dprintk("phy_version == %s (%04x)\n", p->msg, p->reg);
        dprintk("phy_version == Unknown\n");
        dprintk("MAC version != 0 && PHY version == 0 or 1\n");
        dprintk("Do final_reg2.cfg\n");
        dprintk("Set MAC Reg C+CR Offset 0x82h = 0x01h\n");
                dprintk("Set MAC Reg C+CR Offset 0x82h = 0x01h\n");
                dprintk("Set PHY Reg 0x0bh = 0x00h\n");
                dprintk(KERN_INFO PFX "Set MAC Reg C+CR Offset 0xE0. "

If the author does so prefer KERN_INFO levels, it's better to use:

#define dprintk(fmt, arg...) \
	do { printk(KERN_INFO PFX fmt, ## arg); } while (0)
