I think the logging is a distraction. Everyone is I think happy with the
other minor tidying and the move from staging ? If so lets just get it
moved while Greg and Joe throw buns at each other 8)

For the record IMHO custom _dbg wrappers are usually not justified but I
think I agree with Joe on this one because we have some many
&foo->bar->baz it eliminates.

Anyway - that can wait.

==============================================

I have no problem with Alan's suggestion, however, I think I need to wait
until Greg integrates two patches that are already in the queue; one that I 
submitted yesterday (for device version detection) and the clean-up patch.

Once I see these in the staging, then I plan to try to move to the misc
directory under drivers.
