In this particular case, it isn't just a matter of style.
Also, if what is regarded as a good practice has changed since the
file was created, should new code added to it be prevented from
following the new good practice, because the old code didn't follow
it?

I would do the pr_info() here in this patch and change the rest of the
file to follow in a subsequent patch.
