Can you use:
printk(KERN_WARNING FW_WARN "%s returned an invalid level", buf);
instead please.
It would be great if major kernel contributors, especially those working
near the BIOS do make use of the FW_* strings more often!
Cleaning up existing messages is one (work intensive) thing, but please
use it to identify new BIOS issues.
Thanks,
