Here it is, you're initializing 'prefix' here although it is being
used in the previous patch. You should concentrate the whole prefix
initialization and passing in one patch so that there are no breakages.
Also, why is it exactly 44 chars long, is that some magic number
that always works? At least this is what aer_print_error does
too. I'm guessing someone chose it because it is large enough for
dev_driver_string() and dev_name() and a couple more formatting
characters. Oh well.
Thanks.
