pr_debug does not behave the same as printk(KERN_DEBUG

pr_debug is only active when DEBUG is #defined or dynamic_debug
is enabled.

printk(KERN_DEBUG is always emitted as long as the debug level
is enabled for the console.

At a minimum, your commit message should show you know that.

Please also coalesce format strings where possible.
