    dev_printk and new-style class devices · a456b702

    As the new-style class devices (as opposed to old-style struct
    class_device) are becoming more widely used, I noticed that the
    dev_printk-based functions are not working properly with these.
    New-style class devices have no driver nor bus, almost by definition,
    and as a result dev_driver_string(), which is used as the first
    parameter of dev_printk, resolves to an empty string. This causes
    entries like the following to show in my logs:
    
     i2c-2: adapter [SMBus stub driver] registered
    
    Notice the unaesthetical leading whitespace. In order to fix this
    problem, I suggest that we extend dev_driver_string to deal with
    new-style class devices:
