Just to clarify, I do *want* both changes, just in separate patches.
So we'd have

  1) Convert KERN_DEBUG uses to pci_info() for pci_dev usage and to
     dev_info() for pcie_device usage.  I think pciehp is probably an
     exception to this; this patch shouldn't touch ctrl_dbg().

  2) Convert "dev_info(pcie_device)" to "pci_info(pci_dev)".  It might
     be worth doing this in separate patches for each service.  If we
     decide they're simple enough to combine, that's trivial for me to
     do.  It's a little more hassle to split things up afterwards.

     In pciehp, if you do this in the ctrl_*() definitions, it will
     make the patch much smaller.

  3) In pciehp, ctrl_dbg() could probably be changed to use pci_dbg()
     so we'd use the standard kernel dynamic debug stuff instead of
     having the pciehp-specific module parameter.

Thanks a lot for working on all this.  I think it will make the user
experience significantly simpler.
