Instead, we should switch as many printks to dev_* and similar as
possible, right? They are standard and provide a good interface for
extensions: one has a device to work with. This is something what pr_*
does not offer. For that reason it's not worth it.

Ok, I finally found some time to look into the changes properly. I was
confused by Adrian's note that you moved a debug check to an external
function. But that is not true.

Frankly, moving the debug code to a separate function should make the
code rather faster. By moving the unlikely code out of the instruction
cache.
