4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

Instead of having the function name hard-coded (it might change and we forgot to update them in the debug output) we can use __func__ instead and also shorter the line so we do not need to break it. Also fix an extra blank line while being here. Found by checkpatch.

This is a perfectly good fix for upstream, but really not important enough for stable. Sasha, please retrain your patch selector.
For some reason I thought this was a dependancy for a later patch, but that seems to not be correct. Was the real reason later removed from the series?
