Subject: [PATCH -v3 1/4] printk, Add pr_pfx for library functions
Date: Thu,  2 Dec 2010 16:05:02 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1291277105-31758-2-git-send-email-ying.huang@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1291277105-31758-1-git-send-email-ying.huang@intel.com>

For library functions doing printk, the log level and line prefix
usually need to be specified by the caller. So this patch adds
"pr_pfx" to make the life of these library functions easier.
