The double prefix is strangely verbose and pedantic, but it does make
immediately obvious which driver emitted the message (as opposed to one of
the lower-level firewire drivers, or one of the upper-level networking
drivers).
For somebody who is familiar with the drivers --- or after full text search
through the source --- the firewire_net part is of course superfluous.

I think I tried it when I wrote the patch, hence the "module size is a
little bit decreased because KBUILD_MODNAME is now moved from the format
strings into a %s argument" in the changelog. But I wrote this quite a
while ago, so I better try again.
This is on linux-3.2 elf64-x86-64 with a few debug options, gcc-4.5.3.
Before yesterday's patch:
$ size firewire-net.ko; du -b firewire-net.ko
text data bss dec hex filename
9499 744 24 10267 281b firewire-net.ko
209777 firewire-net.ko
With the patch that I posted yesterday:
text data bss dec hex filename
9613 744 24 10381 288d firewire-net.ko
210056 firewire-net.ko
Weird, I must have done something differently back then. Wrongly, for
example.
With module name in the format strings:
#define fwnet_notice(net, fmt, args...) \
printk(KERN_NOTICE KBUILD_MODNAME " %s: " fmt, (net)->name, ## args)
#define fwnet_err(net, fmt, args...) \
printk(KERN_ERR KBUILD_MODNAME " %s: " fmt, (net)->name, ## args)
text data bss dec hex filename
9613 744 24 10381 288d firewire-net.ko
209760 firewire-net.ko
Without the module name, i.e.:
#define fwnet_notice(net, fmt, args...) \
printk(KERN_NOTICE "%s: " fmt, (net)->name, ## args)
#define fwnet_err(net, fmt, args...) \
printk(KERN_ERR "%s: " fmt, (net)->name, ## args)
text data bss dec hex filename
9483 744 24 10251 280b firewire-net.ko
209632 firewire-net.ko
So how about the following patch, for sake of countering kernel bloat?
text data bss dec hex filename
9430 744 24 10198 27d6 firewire-net.ko
209659 firewire-net.ko

Subject: [PATCH 3/4] firewire: net: use dev_printk API
Change the log line prefix from "firewire_net: " to "net firewire0: "
etc. for the case that several RFC 2734 interfaces are being used in the
same machine.
Note, the netdev_printk API is not very useful to firewire-net.
netdev_notice(net, "abc\n") would result in irritating messages like
"firewire_ohci 0000:0a:00.0: firewire0: abc". Nor would a dev_printk on
the fw_unit.device to which firewire-net is being bound be useful,
because there are generally multiple ones of those per interface (from
all RFC 2734 peers on the bus, the local node being only one of them).
In the initialization message of each interface, log the PCI device
name of the card which is parent of the netdevice instead of the GUID
of the peer which was semi-randomly used to establish the netdevice.
