dev_dbg() and pr_debug() both manage to get these semantics right, and you can even bury the #define DEBUG underneath some Kconfig silliness if you're the kind of person that leans that way. Maybe we can just amend checkpatch to delete a patch out of protest if it introduces printk() wrappers.. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
