Yes I did think about it, see below.

I debated using debug.  The problem with debug is that it requires a kernel 
recompile.  This may not be acceptable for some users.  Ib_umad devices should  
only be accessible from a privileged user which I felt was sufficient 
protection against a DOS attack.  But if it would be more acceptable I can 
change to [pr|dev]_debug.
