In case this option wins, patch follows. There is no need for
2-nd one to fix existing drivers.

Subject: [PATCH] dynamic_debug: dynamic hex dump
Introduce print_hex_dump_debug() that can be dynamically controlled, similar to
pr_debug.
Also, make print_hex_dump_bytes() dynamically controlled
Implement only 'p' flag (_DPRINTK_FLAGS_PRINT) to keep it simple since hex dump prints
multiple lines and long prefix would impact readability.
To provide line/file etc. information, use pr_debug or similar
before/after print_hex_dump_debug()
