[patch 1/4] make pr_debug() dynamic

From: Jason Baron
Date: Thu Feb 07 2008 - 16:20:15 EST



-make pr_debug() dynamic so it can be switched on/off. The off state
is implemented on top of the immediate infrastructure, so as to promote
more dynamic printing and debugging. depends on CONFIG_HAVE_IMMEDIATE
and CONFIG_PRINTK
