Subject: [PATCH] debug: Introduce a dev_WARN() function

in the line of dev_printk(), this patch introduces a dev_WARN() macro,
that takes a struct device and then a printk format/args set of arguments.
Unlike dev_printk(), the effect is that of WARN() in that a full warning
message (including filename/line, module list, versions and a backtrace)
is printed in addition to the device name and the arguments.

Subject: [PATCH] debug: use dev_WARN() rather than WARN_ON() in device_pm_add()

device_pm_add() has a WARN_ON that is showing up relatively high on
kerneloops.org, but unfortunately the WARN_ON is less than useful
in that it doesn't print any information about what device is causing
the issue.

This patch fixes this by turning the WARN_ON() into the newly
introduces dev_WARN() which will print information about the
device in question.

I like the idea, but we already have dev_warn(), so dev_WARN() might be
a bit confusing for people.

Perhaps just documenting it with a docbook tag would suffice?

thanks,

I didn't think we could do kerneldoc for macros? But maybe I just
misremember

I added a set of comments, and also ended up doing the below USB change

Subject: [PATCH] usb: turn dev_warn+WARN_ON combos into dev_WARN

dev_WARN is both compacter and gives better debug information
than just a WARN_ON, since people and tools will copy the device
information message together with the WARN_ON in bug reports.

Ok, that looks good, care to resend all of these, with the changed
original one so that I can apply them?
