Actually, I think it might be useful to have a second level of debugging.
I hope to soon have time & resources to add some logic to dump lots of register
info and such in human-readable format, (like, when DMA times out).  That is going to be a lot
of strings added to the driver, so the compile size will definitely
increase.  If keeping the size small is important, then this sort of verbose thing
could be hidden behind a second level of debugging...

Thanks,
Ben
