Hi,
I am trying to fix a coding issue . I get the following warning when my module is checked with checkpatch.pl.

How can i remove the warning. I see a lot of drivers using printk() function.

$ perl ~/linux-stable/scripts/checkpatch.pl -f hello.c

WARNING: Prefer netdev_dbg(netdev, ... then dev_dbg(dev, ... then
pr_debug(...  to printk(KERN_DEBUG ...
#6: FILE: hello.c:6:

+       printk(KERN_DEBUG "hello module unloaded\n");
