[PATCH v2] mmc: sdhci: Stop advertising the driver in dmesg
From: Linus Walleij
Date: Tue Oct 07 2025 - 18:04:43 EST
As much as we have grown used to seeing this message on
every kernel boot, it does not add any technical value.
Drop all messages from sdhci_drv_init().
We need to keep the module_init/exit() calls to stub
functions for the module to work according to
<linux/module.h>.

Changes in v2:
- Drop all the messages instead of demoting.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251007-mmc-no-advert-v1-1-0e16989d28ef@xxxxxxxxxx
