well, as you correctly pointed out, there are multiple users of
'do_bank_switch' so we don't want to put the message in the function itself.

We could indeed use __func__ instead, that'd be fine.

Looking at the code, there are also inconsistencies with the use of
pr_err and dev_err. dev_err(bus->dev is wrong actually, this would use
the bus variable assigned in the previous loop, this makes no sense for
multi-segment topologies.

Let's drop this patch and revisit all this, hope Vinod can deal with
patch 1..4 otherwise we'll resend the set.

Thanks Amadeusz for the feedback.
