Hi Joe,

Thanks for the comment Joe. It looks like Roland already accepted the
trivial change.

You are right about using __func__. That is what I use typically too. In
this file, none of the qib_devinfo() messages use __func__, so I stuck
with the trivial change for consistency. I could write another patch
that makes use of __func__ for all the appropriate qib_devinfo() calls
(there are 4 of them.) Do you think that is a worthwhile change? BTW, I
did review all the other qib_devinfo() calls to make sure they are using
the correct function names, and they look good.
