Fixed in changeset 0a03b27918c8b53c86be53e738b4bd4292dbdaf1 the logging wasn't all that necessary so I just removed it.

Root cause:
With the advent of packet capture, nic_create_and_bind() calls pcapdump_init(), which calls pcapdump_drv_driver_init(), which calls log_init("PCAP"). This overrides the device framework's call to log_init(). As a result, driver messages are logged, together with pcap's messages into /log/pcap.txt.
