hi Joe,

In case it wasnt clear, the idea was to leave pr_fmt as is for use
with pr_info, etc.
Providing another, separate macro for the purpose would seem most
straightforward:

#define pr_dbg_fmt ( fmt ) fmt

>> - __dynamic_pr_debug(&descriptor, pr_fmt(fmt), ##__VA_ARGS__);\
>> + __dynamic_pr_debug(&descriptor, pr_dbg_fmt(fmt), ##__VA_ARGS__); \

would this address your concerns ?

It doesnt allow arbitrary insertion of extra punctuation, etc between
file, func, module, line, nor rearrange the ordering, but thats
probably overkill.
