agreed :)

I think if you start above at next line, you can be in 100chars and still be in
single line...
	dev_info(&pdev->dev,
		"hardware revision: %d @ 0x%x with %d physical channels and %d logical channels\n",
Plus a truncated one would help too...
s/revision/rev
s/channels/ch
etc

would bring this to saner levels :)
