Might as well avoid the format string then too.

pr_info(vlan_fullname " v" vlan_version " " vlan_copyright
" All bugs added by: " vlan_buggyright "\n");

or just kill the otherwise unused vlan_<foo> variables

pr_info("802.1Q VLAN Support v" vlan_version
" Ben Greear <greearb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>"
" All bugs added by: David S. Miller <davem@xxxxxxxxxx>\n");

though I think that emitting names on startup isn't necessary and
this is enough:

pr_info("802.1Q VLAN Support v" vlan_version "\n");
