Re: [RFC PATCH 1/3] usbnet: Get rid of spammy usbnet "kevent X may have been dropped"

Every once in a while when my system is under a bit of stress I see
some spammy messages show up in my logs that say:

  kevent X may have been dropped

As far as I can tell these messages aren't terribly useful.

I agree, FWIW. These messages just confuse users for no purpose at all.

+	netdev_dbg(dev->net, "kevent %d scheduled\n", work);

Or maybe

        if (schedule_work (&dev->kevent))
        	netdev_dbg(dev->net, "kevent %d scheduled\n", work);


?  Not that I think it matters much.
