Hi Jason,

What happened to the proposed patch to enable dynamic debug lines at module 
load time?

After hitting this problem when trying to figure out why w83627ehf does not 
load I found that apparently there is no way to enable pr_debug's called from 
its module_init and googling discovered this thread: 
https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/5/26/192

Thanks,

Tvrtko

Hi Tvrtko,

Jim Cromie and I have been working on a set of patches to address this
issue. I'm aware this is an important issue (And yes, it's taken far too
long to address it). We are trying to post something shortly.

Thanks,

-Jason

It's not a regular nuisance for me, I just spotted the flaw and wanted to bring 
it up in case it slipped form everyone radars. If it was actively bugging me I 
would be happy to offer a hand. This way it is good to know it's being worked 
on so thanks for letting us know.

Regards,

Tvrtko
