In drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_ih.c, amdgpu_ih_process calls DRM_DEBUG which calls drm_dbg and finally calls printk. As amdgpu_ih_process is called from an interrupt handler, and interrupt handler should be short as possible. As printk may lead to bogging down the system or can even create a live lock. printk should not be used in IRQ context. Instead, trace_printk is recommended.
