Since you do not provide your code I have to guess that your print
statement looks like this:

          pr_debug("Hello World!");

Please notice that printk doesn't flush until a trailing newline is
provided (Linux Device Drivers Chapter 4). So maybe this is what you want:

          pr_debug("Hello World!\n");
