how is it different from pr_err? Did you forget to update verboseness
levels or it's intentional?

btw, there is a nasty shadowing of nr variable, which is used both for
the for() loop condition (as int) and as `int *` inside the loop body.
It's better to rename inner (or outer) nr, it's extremely confusing as
is.
