I think Michael put these in for debugging originally, and when I first
got the patch from him, I think the code was there but was commented out.
I kind of like to know when and with what frequency the kernel is doing
these kmallocs, and was curious to see if there would ever bee kfrees. I
don't think I've ever seen kfree happen here. You can comment out the
printks if you don't want to know.
