This is basically what Nicolas's patch series does in this very patch!

And no, I hate it. We are currently discussing ways of not having to
modify the config in order to allow trace_printk() to be used.

We don't want to burden the developer to take a config, add a bunch of
trace_printks() and find that it's compiled out!

Thus, this is a NAK.
