After adding __func__ back into the string, here's what it looks like:

$ sudo dmsetup message dust1 0 addbadblock 60
$ sudo dmsetup message dust1 0 queryblock 60
dust_query_block: block 60 found in badblocklist
$ sudo dmsetup message dust1 0 queryblock 61
dust_query_block: block 61 not found in badblocklist

I feel that the output's origin is more clear, so I'd like to leave
__func__ in the output.

I took a look at the DMEMIT calls, and in all three cases, it looks
like there's something DMEMIT()'d:

dust_query_block: either "block found", or "block not found".
dust_clear_badblocks: either "no badblocks found", or "badblocks cleared".
result of "message ... countbadblocks": always prints "%llu badblocks found".


Thanks,

Bryan
