If the goal is to do the latter, why introduce needless patch churn
now just to get to pr_<level>?  Having a standardized netdev_<label>()
adds real benefit that can be weighed against the cost of code churn.
Why not just wait until the netdev_<level> infrastructure can be
introduced?  It will save effort on everybody's part.
