The problem I see with pr_debug() is that it could only activated via
a compile flag. To use the debug outputs you have to re-compile /
compile your own kernel.

Do you really need this heavy debug logging in the first place? You
can use kprobes for arbitrary run-time inspection anyway, so logging
everything seems wasteful.

Yeah, I really don't think you want to be running with that kind of
debugging gunk in a production kernel. Is someone who can't build their
own kernel really going to be able to make sense of the output?

cheers
