dev_info() is not a way to send debug messages.

If you want this to be only for debugging, use dev_dbg(). And when you
use that, you get the __func__ location for free in the output already
if you want that.

Perhaps make the text unique then? Why would an informational message
need a function name. Drivers should be quiet when all is going well.
If something is not going well, dev_info() is not the kernel log level
to be sending something out at.

the dynamic debug code in the kernel already adds the function name
where the message was sent from, if you want to know this in userspace.
Please read the documentation for details (I think the key is the 'f'
flag to be enabled in userspace).

So adding __func__ to dev_dbg() calls are redundant and never needed.
