That is equally cryptic _with_ grepping through the source code, and
much uglier.  __func__ should only be used when the function name is
not a literal constant (mainly in macros).  The new nfs code only uses
__func__ in 2 places, now including this one.  The old nfs code only
uses it in a few more than 2 places.
