Come on. This VPRINK stuff is really pointless. Enable irq tracepoints, they
already track the enter/exit of interrupt handlers ....

sure. waiting for some more comments if any.

Yeah, VPRINTK way predates tracepoints and is kinda silly at this
point.  That said, it's used relatively consistently across libata and
some people still use it for debugging.  We can replace them with
proper tracepoints but that's a work for another patchset.  For now,
let's leave it in for consistency with counterparts.

Thanks.
