Recently, you've sent two different patches against two different drivers with 
the same subject.

IMO it is fair enough to call that "confusing".

Moreover, pr_debug() is not a direct replacement for printk(KERN_DEBUG ) as the 
latter does
not require dynamic debug to be enabled and I'm not really sure if you are 
aware of that
difference.
