Please note that -DDEBUG is equivalent to '#define DEBUG', not to '#define 
CONFIG_DEBUG'. 'DEBUG' needs to be defined for dev_dbg() to have any effect. 
Furthermore, there's not CONFIG_DEBUG as far as I know.

An alternative to this would be to add

#ifdef CONFIG_VIDEO_OMAP3_DEBUG
#define DEBUG
#endif

at the beginning of each source file of the driver. That doesn't seem very 
practical to me though.
