AFAIK if they are showing up in dmesg output, they are coming from the
kernel.  Looks like you enabled DEBUG in your kernel:

# cd /usr/src/linux-2.6.16.1 && grep -r class_device_create_uevent .
./drivers/base/class.c:static int class_device_create_uevent(struct
class_device *class_dev,

# less drivers/base/class.c
...
        pr_debug("%s called for %s\n", __FUNCTION__, class_dev->class_id);
...

# grep -r pr_debug . | grep "define"
...
./include/linux/kernel.h:#define pr_debug(fmt,arg...) \
...

# less include/linux/kernel.h
...
#ifdef DEBUG
#define pr_debug(fmt,arg...) \
        printk(KERN_DEBUG fmt,##arg)
...

But the boot-time messages should be saved in /var/log/dmesg.
