No, __func__ is an obfuscation. It is sort of write-only. It should
only be used when the function name is not a compile-time constant
(mainly in macros). Its use would be an especially large style bug
in ufs, since ufs consistently doesn't use it (except in 1 recently
broken place).
The above commit also breaks the style using blind substitution which
happens to expand a line beyond 80 characters.
