There are about 2000 cases in the kernel of the same '#define
pr_fmt...' being pasted into the top of the file, which seems a bit
cumbersome. Rather than having to paste that into each and every file
that I pr_err from, why can't I just do this from the makefile, since
I want that same pr_fmt to copy the whole directory?
