Subject: [PATCH] driver core: Don't require dynamic_debug for initcall_debug probe timing
Date: Wed, 12 Apr 2023 15:58:42 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230412225842.3196599-1-swboyd@chromium.org> (raw)

Don't require the use of dynamic debug (or modification of the kernel to
add a #define DEBUG to the top of this file) to get the printk message
about driver probe timing. This printk is only emitted when
initcall_debug is enabled on the kernel commandline, and it isn't
immediately obvious that you have to do something else to debug boot
timing issues related to driver probe. Add a comment too so it doesn't
get converted back to pr_debug().

Fixes: eb7fbc9fb118 ("driver core: Add missing '\n' in log messages")
