Yes, as there is already a patch from Chris my patch can be dropped. We
should continue the discussion on your patch instead.

For the rest of this function pin_desc_get() is not necessary. This is
not a simple function call but a radix tree lookup as far as I can see.
I am not sure how important this debugging information is and how
expensive this function call is?!
