pr_err() or pr_info() would probably be better.

Here is how the usb-skeleton driver handles this btw:  

        /* sync/async unlink faults aren't errors */
        if (urb->status) {
                if (!(urb->status == -ENOENT ||
                    urb->status == -ECONNRESET ||
                    urb->status == -ESHUTDOWN))
                        err("%s - nonzero write bulk status received: %d",
                            __func__, urb->status);

                dev->errors = urb->status;
        } else {
                dev->bulk_in_filled = urb->actual_length;
        }

That uses the old usb err() macro which I think is not recomended these
days.  Use pr_err() instead.

Do the other patches still apply if you resend just this patch?  Btw
git send-email has a --in-reply-to option so that the V2 is attached to
the same thread as the original patch.
