7  * We used to warn all over the code: DO NOT USE prom_printf(),
8  * and yet people do. Anton's banking code was outputting banks
9  * with prom_printf for most of the 2.4 lifetime. Since an effective
10  * stick is not available, we deployed a carrot: an early printk
11  * through PROM by means of -p boot option. This ought to fix it.
12  * USE printk; if you need, deploy -p.
