Subject: [PATCH] staging/fbtft: Hush checkpatch.pl warning about unnecessary line continuations.

Use a single fmt string with appropriate verbs as conversion specifiers,
followed by the original string literals and the integer argument
instead of using a backslash to escape a new line embedded inbetween
quoted string literals passed as fmt arguments to dev_err() invoked in
drivers/staging/fbtft/fb_ssd1331.c.
