We have a series ready to convert all printf style logging into rte_log 
APIs as well as fix some other style issues.

We also have a few other things in our internal patch queue waiting to 
be sent out. To reduce conflicts in patchwork we are sending them out in 
the order as some of them depends on each other. And the one cleaning up 
log messages are at the end of the pile unfortunately.

Do you think it's acceptable to take this fix as-is and then a patch 
that convert all printf on one go, or would you prefers we move touch 
this line only once and create a v2 of this fix while also moving it to 
the rte_log APIs?
