Exactly.

Right.

Unpatched Linux uses the first matching entry, but the second one gives
a working i801 device. The point is to print a warning message to see
how many devices are affected and whether it is safe to switch the code
to use the last matching entry in all instances.

Therefore I used dev_warn().
