Yep.  I think dev_info() and friends are prefered now.  Btw, are you
subscribed to the driver-devel mailing list?  Hm...  This email
should have been CC'd to that list, but it's not.

There was a discussion earlier about whether dev->class_dev was the
right device pointer to use.  I think we decided it was.  But it
would be good if someone were testing this.  I assume you don't
have the hardware.

I think instead of adding KERN_ levels we're trying to move to
dev_warn() etc.
