This debugging macro can expand to a lot of code.
Make it a function to reduce code size.

I acked this before; however there is a bug that breaks the build if CONFIG_RTLWIFI_DEBUG is not defined. The rest of the code calls _rtl_dbg_trace(), but that symbol is never defined. The problem can be fixed in debug.c or debug.h.
