I'd think this sort of pilot error should be pr_info() or even pr_debug(), if mentioned at all. pr_warn() would be for something like an unexpected situation like trying to blink an LED but failing. Simple syntax errors should probably just toss a -EINVAL and return. (Among other things, this allows a userspace script to spam the log by simply repeatedly trying to create the same entry)
