Staging driver vme_user has a bunch of printk() calls in vme.c which triggers checkpatch warnings. Remove all printk's and change them to the appropriate logging mechanism i.e pr_err()/pr_warn(), or dev_err()/dev_warn(). Also, cleanup the messages further by using __func__ in the string instead of function names. This patchset fixes all checkpatch warnings like: WARNING: Prefer [subsystem eg: netdev]_err([subsystem]dev, ... then dev_err(dev, ... then pr_err(... to printk(KERN_ERR ... & WARNING: Prefer using '"%s...", __func__' to using 'vme_lm_get', this function's name, in a string Patches must be applied in order.
