+1.  If you wanted to get a bit more creative, maybe collapse all of
these onto a single line to print something like:

airo(eth1): Command didn't complete. cmd:0x111 status:0x7f11 (Rsp: 2, 0,
0)

This message will only happen if the card hangs up and stops responding
to commands anyway, so we don't necessarily care about making the
message decipherable to anyone other than developers.
