Even in kernel messages.

               "   ,
On OLPC, I see "CAFE NAND ...: corrected 1 symbol errors"

(old/vendor kernel, through).

It still has:

MODULE_DESCRIPTION("NAND flash driver for OLPC CAFĂ? chip");

Aha, yes, bug is there even in new kernel:

static struct pci_driver cafe_nand_pci_driver = {
        .name = "CAFĂ? NAND",
        .id_table = cafe_nand_tbl,
        .probe = cafe_nand_probe,
        .remove = __devexit_p(cafe_nand_remove),
        .resume = cafe_nand_resume,
};

That pci_driver.name does leak into
kmsg. ./drivers/mtd/nand/cafe_nand.c . I complained about it before...
