The ndev_* printk's are too lenghty and we don't need to specify
the adapter/netdev struct at all, making this a lot more readable.

This stuff should just be removed.

Either the code should be outputting "ethX: blahblah" via printk(), or 
the code should be outputting the standard dev_printk() prefix [driver 
name, PCI device info].

Also, it is recommended to use the NETIF_MSG_xxx bits to permit 
fine-grained control over which messages are output, on a per-port basis 
(controlled via ethtool).  grep around for 'msg_enable'
