PATCH v3 1/2 usb: gadget: u_ether: Convert prints to device prints

The USB ethernet gadget driver implements its own print macros which call printk. Device drivers should use the device prints that print the device name. Fortunately, the same macro names are defined in the header file 'linux/usb/composite.h' and these use the device prints. Therefore, remove the local definitions in the USB ethernet gadget driver and use those in 'linux/usb/composite.h'. The only difference is that now the device name is printed instead of the ethernet interface name.

Tested using ethernet gadget on Jetson AGX Orin.

V3: Added this patch and dropped the patch in V2 that improved some of
the prints.

PATCH v3 2/2 usb: gadget: u_ether: Don't warn in gether_setup_name_default()

The function gether_setup_name_default() is called by various USB ethernet gadget drivers. Calling this function will select a random host and device MAC addresses. A properly working driver should be silent and not warn the user about default MAC addresses selection. Given that the MAC addresses are also printed when the function gether_register_netdev() is called, remove these unnecessary warnings.

---
V3: Updated patch to remove the prints completely.
V2: Changed print to debug instead of info.

Actually there are more (at least hypothetical) changes than the declared change of printed device name.

If DEBUG is not set there can be _more_ messages printed when your patch is applied as-is (i.e. all DBG() invocations will expand into some dev_dbg(), whereas before the patch is applied they compile into nothing).

In the same spirit, the above block could be considered valid.

Not sure, how much of an issue it is, though.

If DEBUG is not set there can be _more_ messages printed when your patch is applied as-is (i.e. all DBG() invocations will expand into some dev_dbg(), whereas before the patch is applied they compile into nothing).

So dev_dbg() messages will only be printed if DEBUG is defined or if dynamic debug is enabled and the prints are enabled.

Greg, let me know what your thoughts on this version are?

Thanks
Jon

If DEBUG is not set there can be _more_ messages printed when your patch is applied as-is (i.e. all DBG() invocations will expand into some dev_dbg(), whereas before the patch is applied they compile into nothing).

But if you do not manually set the call to dev_dbg() to be printed out, it will not, so there should not be any functional change here.
