I don't accept that idea yet. There are about 50K printks vs 20K pr_<level>s in kernel source. I think 50K lines is _way_ too many to convert in a couple of years. I think it needs to be done subsystem by subsystem, arch by arch, as maintainers accept. And there's no hurry. I have a script that automates most all of the conversions, argument alignments, etc. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
