Note that in this particular case breaking strings was OK, and
was actually done in a clever manner.

That is, I doubt that anyone grep for error messages with
regexps, so grep "Command not pending" or grep "DMA NOT started"
would work.

This makes the code more readable (literally, because you don't
have to scroll to see dev_err's arguments) without sacrificing
grep'ability.
