I think Arushi could add pr_fmt in the same go, so we skip another
follow up patch for this. @Arushi: I suggested this in my previous
email, please have a look.

This would also probably allows us to save the line break in the error
message, which IIRC is not a good practise either, eg.

				pr_warn("nf_queue: OOM "
					"in mangle, dropping packet\n");

Yes, removing periods seems fine.

Thanks.
