Change messages to messages to make it easier to debug. The following
error message isn't informative enough to figure out what failed.
Change messages to include function information.

perhaps instead add #define pr_fmt(fmt) KBUILD_MODNAME ": " fmt
so all the pr_<level> logging is more specific.

This would prefix all pr_<level> output with "integrity: "
Joe! Sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

Agreed.  Joe, could you post a patch with a proper patch description
for this?
I have been looking into this a bit more and there is an opportunity
here to add #define pr_fmt(fmt) KBUILD_MODNAME ": " fmt to integrity.h
and get rid of duplicate defines.
That might work but:

$ git grep --name-only 'integrity\.h' security | xargs grep pr_fmt
security/integrity/digsig.c:#define pr_fmt(fmt) KBUILD_MODNAME ": " fmt
security/integrity/digsig_asymmetric.c:#define pr_fmt(fmt) KBUILD_MODNAME ": " fmt
security/integrity/evm/evm_main.c:#define pr_fmt(fmt) KBUILD_MODNAME ": " fmt
security/security.c:#define pr_fmt(fmt) "LSM: " fmt

Here security.c already uses "LSM: "

Does anyone care about the LSM: prefix?
