Hmmm, we hadn't noticed the new experimental "--fix" option before. There are
a lot of good suggestions there, but obviously it needs a lot of reading and
tweaking before it can be used. There are cases here where function call
parameters are adjusted to line up with the opening '(' but that pushes the
parameter(s) beyond 80 columns - we're trying to stay within the 80 column line
and checkpatch clean. Also, there are several where the first continued
parameter line indent is changed but the next line or two are not.
We'll spend time going through these and try to take care of what makes sense.

We had considered this kind of macro awhile ago, but nixed it for a few
different reasons, but primarily because it seems like yet-another-print-macro
and not necessarily worth the effort.

We're beginning to remove many of the __func__ uses, so these prints are no
longer all doing the __func__ thing. We originally had them there for early
development and debugging and are currently removing them from the normal path
messages.

Doesn't this create a problem with polluting the kernel namespace? These don't
apply to any other driver. I suppose we could lessen the namespace problem
with i40e_ prefix, but I'm still not sold on it. I suspect we can still get
much of the text savings replacing the __func__ with
__builtin_return_address(0) where needed, and remove them where no longer
needed. Does that work for you?

Sure.
