A convention in the sense that so far all code under arch/s390/pci/
uses pr_info() which comes out as "zpci: ..". It seems that similar
pr_info() constructs are also common in other arch/s390/ and
drivers/s390 code.

On the other hand we already agreed that some of the s390 specific PCI
code is more like a PCI controller. So I'm open to suggestions.
