Axe a memory allocation failure log message. This message is useless and
incorrect (vmalloc is not used here for the memory allocation)
This has been like that since the very beginning of this driver in
commit 43f66a6ce8da ("Add ipw2200 wireless driver.")

No need for this extra empty line.
That's right, sorry about that.
Can it be fixed when/if the patch is applied, or should I send a V2?
If a V2 is required, should kcalloc be used, as pointed out by Joe Perches?
(personally, If the code works fine as-is, I don't think it is required,
but it can't hurt)

pci_alloc_consistent(dev, sizeof(q->bd[0]) * count,
&q->q.dma_addr);
