The current status of info, err and warn macros in kernel

Hi,

I noticed that I can't compile some out-of-tree modules like lirc,
lmpcm_usb on my 2.6.30_rc* source tree.
The compiler aborts saying "implicit declaration of function 'info'". I
googled and found the following thread
in linux-next mailing list:

http://markmail.org/message/64hm5ytumcifd3iw

I don't think that those macros are completely removed because it seems
that they're still heavily in use
after grepping on current linus-2.6 tree.

So, is it possible that there's a Kconfig option which makes the
compilation fail on those macros?
Why am I not able to compile those modules? Am I missing something?

Thanks,
