trivia:

I think the output isn't quite what you might expect.
It could be interleaved by pr_cont from a different
thread.

I think this might be a bit more readable as below and
this doesn't use implicit newlines by successive pr_<level>.

static void dump_port_status_diff(u32 old_status, u32 new_status)
{
int i = 0;
u32 bit = 1;

char change;
pr_debug("status old->new %08x -> %08x\n", old_status, new_status);
while (bit) {
u32 old = old_status & bit;
u32 new = new_status & bit;
char change;

if (!old && new)
change = '+';
else if (old && !new)
change = '-';
else
change = ' ';
if (old || new)
pr_debug(" %c%s\n", change, bit_desc[i]);
bit <<= 1;
i++;
}
}

I don't know if this is in any sort of fast-path or if
gcc will completely optimize this completely away if
pr_debug isn't declared, but maybe surround the function
implementation with

static void dump_port_status_diff(u32 prev_status, u32 new_status)
{
#ifdef DEBUG
...
#endif
}
