Using pr_err for things which are not errors is a bad idea. E.g. it
will cause the plymouth bootsplash screen to drop back to the text
console so that the user can see the error, which is not what we
normally want to happen.

Instead add a new brcmf_info macro and use that.

Prefer using the same style as for brcmf_err, ie. using do {} while (0)

OK, v3 with this fixed coming up.

I think Kalle prefers the whole series to be resubmitted.

Kalle,

Can you confirm (or deny)?

Exactly, I want to apply the full series (with the highest version
number). Not waste time guessing what patches I should take and what to
drop, with the increased risk of guessing wrong.

Ok, so patch 2/4 is still under discussion (and may be so for a while)
shall I send a new version with that patch dropped ?  And then send
that patch (or a modified version) separately later ?

Regards,

Hans
