It is mainly for troubleshooting our customer devices. Understand we can 
get the log through dmesg but when we deal with system hang issue, 
console log is very important. And also sometimes customer has rebooted 
the device due to error condition and we lost the dmesg.

How about we update the commit message to:
Update log level messages so that more critical messages
can be logged to console and help the troubleshooting with customer 
devices.
