In the end, don't we want to use netdev_dbg() everywhere where we work
with a struct net_device? And use dev_dbg() everywhere where we work
with a struct device (or a struct usb_interface)?

At least that's how I understand commit 8f26b8376faa ("checkpatch:
update suggested printk conversions") description:

    Direct conversion of printk(KERN_<LEVEL>...  to pr_<level> isn't the
    preferred conversion when a struct net_device or struct device is
    available.

Do you think it is worth going straight for netdev_dbg()/dev_dbg() to
avoid redoing it later?

If we're going to stay with pr_debug(), using KBUILD_MODNAME seems to be
the convention among drivers when defining pr_fmt():

#define pr_fmt(fmt) KBUILD_MODNAME ": " fmt
