Re: Input-gameport: Replace some printk() calls by pr_info() in joydump_connect()

Should the desired output be the same when the relevant data are passed by a single function call
(instead of three as before)?
Adding a singleton for a pr_fmt #define constant string and
updating the printk subsystem to prepend that constant string
to each use of a pr_<level> at runtime would be an improvement
as it could reduce constant data used by the format strings.
Thanks for for this constructive feedback.

That would be a _real_ improvement.
This sounds interesting for me too.

Please try to implement something like that before submitting
more of these incorrect patches.
Nice wish!

Did any other software developer try to implement such enhanced
logging functionality already?

Markus
