If you have a device, it's better to use dev_*(), since that way
you'll get more information in the logs, e.g. which exact device
caused the issue.

But this makes sense only for drivers that support multiple
devices. Not the case for pstore now, though this might change
in the future. (E.g. we might have several pstore nodes some day.)

Thanks,
