Anything between almost 0 for large transfers, to 50 for tiniest. ~5%
for ~500 byte transfers. Considering the chip is rather for small
devices, that won't transfer large amounts of data, I'd rather keep some
way to control it.

These two parameters have something in common: no(?) other way to pass
the information at the right time. Compression might be tuned in
runtime, if there is an interface (via ethtool?) for setting custom
knobs? Ther is such interface for msg_level level but it can be used
before a device is probed and userland is running. Hence, there is no
way to control msg_level during boot. I can remove those parameters, but
I really would like to be able to control these parameter, especially
msg_level during boot. If there is any other way, do let me know.
