When drivers are working properly, they are quiet. This is very noisy
and probably is leaking memory addresses to userspace?


I will remove these, thanks.

Also, there is NEVER a need for __func__ in a pr_debug() line, it has
that for you automatically.


Thank you, I didn't know this.

Also, drivers should never call pr_*() calls, always use the proper
dev_*() calls instead.


We only use struct device in one place in this driver, I think that is the only place it makes sense to use dev_*() over pr_*() calls.

Again, __func__ is not needed, you are providing it twice here for no
real reason except to waste storage space :)


Thanks, I will review all the uses of pr_debug().

None of this needs to be unwound if initialization fails later on?


I think unwinding this is not needed, not 100% sure.
Saurabh, can you comment?

Thanks,
