Woahahahahah, you're killing me! I haven't laughed so hard for a while

Special-casing "error" and "warning". Stop the presses, the kernel

Three companies, huh? Three *whole* companies? Or just three engineers
who can't grep?
Of course, if you say three companies, that should at least give more

Here's a counter-argument: with the gazillion abbreviations in dmesg,
actually having a print statement *explain* what it is trying to say is
refreshing and really helpful.
