This patchset updates the SCSI midlayer to use dev_printk() instead
of the simple printk(). The main objective here is to avoid line-breaks
in syslog output; with the current state it's nearly impossible to match
the output to the occurring device; under high load even the CDB will
be split off into individual bytes, spread randomly across the lines.
Which makes debugging via scsi_logging_level _really_ hard.
In addition we'll be getting the syslog messages nicely prefixed with
the device, which will make userspace logging daemons happy.

I know there are a lot of changes here but shouldn't all this get
fixed in stable 3.5+?


If you ask me, yes, of course.
I can easily post a v2 of the patchset (meanwhile I've got another
patch for st :-), Cc'ing stable with it.

Cheers,

Hannes
