[PATCH] Adding KERN_INFO to some printks

[PATCH] Adding KERN_INFO to some printks

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 481 bytes --]

Hi Linus, all,

I configured my syslog to sort all kernel msgs to
/var/log/syslog.N.debug|info|notice|warn|... (you got the idea)
and made it spew everything on tty12, and warnings only to tty11.

I got tired of seeing purely informative messages on tty11 every
boot. They shouldn't be there.

I'll spend some time looking thru the code and adding KERN_INFO
where apprppriate. First such patch against 2.4.13 is attached.

Feel free to flame me if I'm doing something wrong.
