What Greg said is true, and the volatile conversion
especially needs to be verified.

Using #define DEBUG would be more common.

These might as well be removed and converted to
the direct pr_<level> equivalents and have

#define pr_fmt(fmt) "%s:%d: " fmt, __func__, __LINE__

added before any include, but honestly the
__func__ and __LINE__ aren't particularly useful.

Unless you can absolutely verify that that
doesn't change hardware access, you should
leave this alone.
