Subject: [PATCH] checkpatch: Suggest pr_<level> over printk(KERN_<LEVEL>
Date: Mon, 12 Mar 2012 23:23:03 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1331619783.7100.8.camel@joe2Laptop> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1330667673.1939.22.camel@joe2Laptop>
Suggest the shorter pr_<level> instead of printk(KERN_<LEVEL>.
Prefer to use pr_<level> over bare printks.
Prefer to use pr_warn over pr_warning.
