Subject: [PATCH v3] staging: qlge: emit debug and dump at same level

Simplify code in ql_mpi_core_to_log() by calling print_hex_dump()
instead of existing functions so that the debug and dump are
emitted at the same KERN_<LEVEL>

Signed-off-by: Kaaira Gupta <kgupta@...iitr.ac.in>
---

changes since v1: make code of ql_mpi_core_to_log() simpler.
changes since v2: directly call the function instead of defining a
macro.

Also, can you please help me understand how are are numbers 32 and 4
chosen for the function print_hex_dump()?
