Hey Jim.

Thinking about a bit more, maybe it's possible to use
another test to see if the current pr_fmt is:

#define pr_fmt(fmt) KBUILD_MODNAME ": " fmt

and not add pr_fmt when appropriate.

I tried this once. I recall it worked without adding any
new string dependencies. It did depend on __builtin_strcmp.

+#define _first_macro_arg(arg1, args...) arg1
+#define first_macro_arg(arg1, args...) _first_macro_arg(arg1)
+
+#define define_kernel_printk_level(level, fmt, ...) \
+do { \
+ if (__builtin_strcmp(first_macro_arg(pr_fmt(fmt)), \
+ KBUILD_MODNAME ": " fmt)) \
+ printk(level pr_fmt(fmt), ##__VA_ARGS__); \
+ else \
+ printk(level fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__); \
+} while (0)
