I don't get your point.

#define ACPI_MSG_ERROR          KERN_ERR "ACPI Error: "
#define ACPI_MSG_EXCEPTION      KERN_ERR "ACPI Exception: "
#define ACPI_MSG_WARNING        KERN_WARNING "ACPI Warning: "
#define ACPI_MSG_INFO           KERN_INFO "ACPI: "

so when we do

        acpi_os_printf(ACPI_MSG_WARNING "%s: ", pathname);

we end up with

        printk("%s",  KERN_WARNING "ACPI Warning: %%pathname%%");

note how acpi_os_vprintf() calls printk_get_level() _on_ the
buffer is passes to

        printk("%s", buffer)

because KERN_WARNING is part of the buffer, not the fmt.

there are also other examples that do similar things.

what for?
