One interesting and noteworthy feature of cifs_info() is that it is transparent to the CIFS_DEBUG config state, either in "y" or "n". . Also, by using KERN_INFO level, it can be safely filtered by a maintainer / administrator, without cluttering their log monitors, since this is a low level alert. - I took the liberty to not add it inside the existing pr_debug, because of the eventual need of some developer to print stuff that should be printed not only in CIFS_DEBUG mode (as there are plenty of pr_notice scattered over the code). - Also, this is not a debug but a info message, so i liked cifs_info() more ;-) - I saw plenty of pr_notice() in CIFS code, but I resisted the urge to convert them to cifs_info(). * The second commit contains the code printing a cifs_info() when attempting a CIFS mount operation. Appreciate your review. V3: Created a new cifs_info() function, moved the mount attempt message to cifs_info V2: Created a loop to select the right cifs_dbg message to be printed, considering the current system's scenario, in order to avoid a duplicate message or stripping out important information in debug.
