Perhaps this on top.
trace isn't a good name as it's not a trace mechanism, it is a
typical debug mechanism.
Rename uvc_trace/uvc_trace_cont macros to uvc_dbg/uvc_dbg_cont.
Rename uvc_trace_param to uvc_dbg_param
Rename UVC_TRACE_ defines to UVC_DBG_
Use ## concatenation in uvc_dbg macros to
Prefer strscpy over the deprecated strlcpy function.

The bt_dev_ macros already append a newline.

The "No memory" message could be removed as bt_skb_alloc already does
a dump_stack() on allocation failure.

When searching for inactive maintainers it's useful to filter
out mailing list addresses. Such "maintainers" will obviously
never feature in a "From:" line of an email or a review tag.
Since "L:" entries only provide the address of a mailing list

It may pass checkpatch without warning, but it's uncommon kernel coding style.
