Subject: scsi: Implement st_printk()
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b30d8bca5b525ba557e2fd0dcad5e6e5a2cc58a7;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

scsi: Implement st_printk()

Update the st driver to use dev_printk() variants instead of
plain printk(); this will prefix logging messages with the
appropriate device.
