No need to obfuscate, just use the normal debugging macro.
Add "\n" to uses, align arguments, coalesce formats.
Fix a typo and fix a bad format extended by a line continuation.
what is this patch buying us.
Easier greps of pr_debug.
This depends what are you grepping for: for all usage of pr_debug or only
for bluetooth related debugs ;)
BT_DBG is just an unnecessary useless wrapper.
I think at some point we need to remove the wrapper and switch to common 
debug function like dev_dbg but what is the point just renaming it?

Best regards

The only useful change would be to move to dev_printk, but we are not
there yet.
Maybe dev_dbg, but there isn't always an
appropriate device * available.

There are many uses of:
	pr_debug("%s ...", (some struct hci_dev *)->name, ...)

that could be something like

hci_dev_dbg((some struct hci_dev *), fmt, ...)
