We should be able to find a middle ground. Spamming the log with all
sorts of device specific information/debug is obviously not
constructive, but a single liner to advertise that an important
device/controller has been successfully initialised is more helpful
than it is hinderous.
This print was added due to the silent initialisation costing me
several hours of debugging ACPI device/driver code (albeit learning a
lot about ACPI as I go) just to find out that it was already doing the
right thing - just very quietly.
