My statement was wrong, from what I can see having a closer look:
printk(KERN_DEBUG...) messages will not show up, but dev_dbg will:
----------
asmlinkage int printk(const char * fmt, ...)
        __attribute__ ((format (printf, 1, 2))) __cold;
static inline int printk(const char *s, ...)
        __attribute__ ((format (printf, 1, 2)));
----------
I wonder whether the KERN_DEBUG can be differed at compile time
and could also result in a dynamic_pr_debug...

----------
#elif defined(CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG)
/* dynamic_pr_debug() uses pr_fmt() internally so we don't need it here */
#define pr_debug(fmt, ...) \
        dynamic_pr_debug(fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__)

#elif defined(CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG)
#define dev_dbg(dev, format, ...)                    \
do {                                                 \
        dynamic_dev_dbg(dev, format, ##__VA_ARGS__); \
}
