Looks Good.
The one thing that is bothering me though, is that for __dynamic_dev_dbg(), __dynamic_netdev_dbg(), we are copying much of the core logic of __dev_printk(), __netdev_printk(), respectively. I would prefer have this in one place. Can we add a 'prefix' argument to __dev_printk(), and __netdev_printk() that dynamic debug can use, but is simply empty for dev_printk() and netdev_printk().
Thanks,
