This message is getting mighty long (approx. 120 characters when
printed). Are you sure we need all this? Maybe split into two separate
pr_info's sometime. But I'm OK with merging this for now.

Hm.. well, although it's still a two-line message, I also don't like
to see this growing.

I think we should try to answer: why would anyone want to see any of
this when the kernel boots?

So maybe we should pr_info only the most important information,
and then either: 1) pr_debug the rest, or 2) show it in some debugfs files.

PS: Can't avoid thinking of Eric Raymond's rule of *silence* :-)

But what information can be regarded as the most important?

if you think the cell type information is not so important, i can
abandon this patch.
