When printk-indexing is enabled, each dev_printk() invocation emits a pi_entry structure. This is even true when the dev_printk() is protected by an always-false check, as is typically the case for debug messages: while the actual code to print the message is optimized out by the compiler, the pi_entry structure is still emitted. Avoid emitting pi_entry structures for unavailable dev_printk() kernel messages by: 1. Introducing a dev_no_printk() helper, mimicked after the existing no_printk() helper, which calls _dev_printk() instead of dev_printk(), 2. Replacing all "if (0) dev_printk(...)" constructs by calls to the new helper. This reduces the size of an arm64 defconfig kernel with CONFIG_PRINTK_INDEX=y by 957 KiB.
