[PATCH] initcall failure reporting

We presently ignore the return values from initcalls.  But that can carry
useful debugging information.  So print it out if it's non-zero.

It turns out the -ENODEV happens quite a lot, due to built-in drivers which
have no hardware to drive.  So suppress that unless initcall_debug was
specified.

Also make the warning message more friendly by printing the name of the
initcall function.

Also drop the KERN_DEBUG from the initcall_debug message.  If we specified
inticall_debug then we obviously want to see the messages.
