Thanks, I'll convert.

Hm, I've taken this idea from ssb and b43:
[b43err] printk(KERN_ERR "b43-%s ERROR: %pV", ...);
[_pll_init] ssb_printk(KERN_ERR PFX "ERROR: PLL init unknown for...

Some more reviews, please? Should I drop that prefix, is Joe right? Or
is there some official coding-style for such a situations?

I was reading about __packed long time ago and it was a little tricky
for me. However I don't see anything in mod_devicetable.h using that
__packed. Why should we?
