Thanks for doing this, however instead of using pr_xxx() I'd like
drivers that are integrated in driver model (serio, usb, gameport, etc,
i.e. when we have 'struct device' available, exept for psmouse) to use
drv_xxx() instead.

That would make synaptics messages to come as "psmouse", right? I think
we shoudl use

#define pr_fmt(fmt) "synaptics: " fmt

here and in the rest of specialized PS/2 protocol handlers.

Thanks.
