Using dev_printk won't work because of the order of the elements of the
printk. The kmsg tag should not have a "random" position in the printk
but should be the first element. If we use dev_printk the kmsg tag will
be the third element, for other kmsg printks it will be the first. In
addition the kmsg message tag for the device drivers already includes
the driver name ..
