Subject: staging: rtl8723bs: prefer ftrace

Hi,

some suggestions before diving in a new task.
The following checkpatch issue:

--
WARNING: Unnecessary ftrace-like logging - prefer using ftrace
#559: FILE: drivers/staging/rtl8723bs/core/rtw_ap.c:559:
+	DBG_871X("%s\n", __func__);

simply says to remove the line, due to the existence of the more
appealing ftrace facility, right?

@@ -556,8 +554,6 @@ void update_sta_info_apmode(struct adapter *padapter, struct sta_info *psta)
 	/* set intf_tag to if1 */
 	/* psta->intf_tag = 0; */
 
-	DBG_871X("%s\n", __func__);
-
 	/* psta->mac_id = psta->aid+4; */
 	/* psta->mac_id = psta->aid+1;//alloc macid when call rtw_alloc_stainfo(), */
 	/* release macid when call rtw_free_stainfo() */

thank you,

fabio
