My first thought was "how ugly".
There must be a better way than scraping dmesg output.

This bit should just use %pV and a single printk to
avoid any possible message interleaving.

{
struct va_format vaf;
va_list args;

va_start(args, fmt)

vaf.fmt = fmt;
vaf.va = &args;

if (dev)
pr_info("[Firmware Info]: %s %s at %s:%d %pV",
dev_driver_string(dev), dev_name(dev),
file, line, &vaf);
else
pr_info("[Firmware Info]: at %s:%d %pV",
file, line, &vaf);

etc...
