Yes, that would make sense.

As most of the files touched by this patch are device drivers, dev_*()
functions should be used instead of pr_*() where possible. I'd recommend
a first patch that converts to dev_*(), and then a second patch that
converts the remaining printk()s, if any, to pr_*() in the contexts
where no struct device is available or can easily be made available.
