SubjectRe: [PATCH] Print some info into ring-buffer during loading

Hey Jessen Li/Jason-Lee,
(I hope one of those is your name, sorry if it isn't - just feels weird
addressing a username like "root" haha.

Maybe you already know this, but adding pr_info()s is not generally a
useful change. You should check out kernel newbies [0] - I think they
direct people towards starting kernel development in drivers/staging
where there is a lot of low hanging fruit for new developers.

Also, it might be of use to you to check out the guidelines for writing
commit messages before you go any further [1].

Hope that helps & good luck!
Conor.
