I think it's not useless though.

Anything else you think it should be?
Maybe "net_core_device:" or some such like that?

Here are the format strings now prefaced by "dev:"

$ strings net/core/built-in.o |grep "^<.>dev:"
<6>dev: netif_stop_queue() cannot be called before register_netdev()
<4>dev: dev_remove_pack: %p not found
<3>dev: Loading kernel module for a network device with CAP_SYS_MODULE (deprecated)
<0>dev: %s: failed to move %s to init_net: %d
<3>dev: alloc_netdev: Unable to allocate device with zero queues
<3>dev: alloc_netdev: Unable to allocate device with zero RX queues
<3>dev: alloc_netdev: Unable to allocate device
