[PATCH] add macros notice(), dev_notice() (take 2)

[Tilman Schmidt]

Both usb.h and device.h have collections of convenience macros for
printk() with the KERN_ERR, KERN_WARNING, and KERN_NOTICE severity
levels. This patch adds macros for the KERN_NOTICE level which was
so far uncatered for.

These macros already exist privately in drivers/isdn/gigaset/gigaset.h
(currently in the process of being submitted for the kernel tree)
but they really belong with their brothers and sisters in
include/linux/{device,usb}.h.

This patch applies to kernel 2.6.16-rc5. It replaces the one posted
on 24 Feb 2006 11:05:45 +0100 which might cause compile errors in
non-modular drivers.
