On a "really fragile" latop I noticed a single i8042.c: i8042 controller selftest failed. (0x1 != 0x55) error in the log. But there's no reason to print this message at KERN_ERR level each time that loop fails, especially since the message telling about the overall selftest failure is printed at KERN_INFO level (on X86). Add an actual error message for non-X86 systems, where a selftest failure is (apparently) more serious. Remove a space in an another error message.
