This changes the action of the system. By default: printk(KERN_DEBUG "foo\n"); is enabled all the time and prints to log with debug level.
But your version pr_debug("foo\n"); defaults to being dropped until the system is built with dynamic debug, and that particular debug instance is enabled.
Since these are all useful, but low priority messages, not I don't think disabling them by default is such a great idea now.
