[PATCH] soc: amlogic: socinfo: Avoid soc_device_to_device()

[Andreas Färber]

The helper soc_device_to_device() is considered deprecated.
For a driver __init function the predictable prefix text
"soc soc0:" from dev_info() does not add real value, so use
pr_info() to emit the info text without such prefix.

While at it, normalize the casing of "detected" for GX.

This should message should just be removed entirely.

Same here, no need to polute the kernel log for when all is going just
fine.

That's why we created "common" driver init helpers, to prevent the
ability for this type of noise from even being able to be created at
all.

Let's have that discussion in the central thread please.

Fact here is that Amlogic GX's kernel output (and this code getting
mirrored into U-Boot) made me aware of this driver in the first place.

As Uwe said in the common thread, this print doesn't polute the kernel log at all,
it's pretty useful for CI, like kernelCI, to check the test coverage on SoCs revisions.

Yes it's duplicated in U-boot, but a little fraction of the boards in kCi uses this
U-Boot version, they often use the vendor bootloader.

And BTW, by moving dev_info to pr_info actually changes the output format.

Can you be more precise about why "soc_device_to_device()" is now suddently deprecated ?
