My understanding was that printk lines without a level are considered
to be at KERN_ERR or so.  Is that wrong?


Andrew and/or Paulus, see patch below.


It really seems strange to be *removing* printk level tags.  I'd like
to nack this until I understand why it will improve things.  At the
very least it needs a big fat comment so some janitor doesn't come
along and put the tags back in.

He's removing KERN_ALERT ... I guess it could get switched from KERN_ALERT to KERN_ERR, but ...

Either way, KERN_ALERT seems way too low to me. I object to getting
half the oops, and not the other half ;-)
