Hi,
There are some printouts in the phy abstraction library using pr_info().
Personally I would prefer if they used pr_debug() instead.
Especially the pr_info("%s: probed\n", bus->name) in mdiobus_register()
since in some cases I can't tolerate a console printout while the link
is down (we have an ethernet debug link and read the UART output through
the link).
Of course this is a very specific case but in general in embedded
systems (which I think is where the phylib is mainly used) I prefer the
driver and other kernel code to be rather silent if not debugging.
Any opinions? :)
Best regards,
Kristoffer Glembo
