Agreed, will change to pr_info()

you mean as a CodingStyle issue, or a compiler issue?
do you have a reference for this requirement? 

do you mean if the 'if' part has {}, the else part should too, even if
it's a single line?

I don't really care one way or the other, just want to know more about
what you're suggesting.

Thanks,

Kevin
