Hi Chetan,

Is this fix really necessary? I know checkpatch is complaining, but this
isn't a macro that requires the do { } while (0) fix to ensure it is
used correctly, it seems kinda superfluous to add it anyway. Checkpatch
doesn't emit this error for a single statement `for`, so it seems like a
single statement `if` was also probably not intended to be considered
'complex'.

On that note though, if it is going to be added I think it would make
sense to get the indentation correct with the `do {`:

	do { \
		if (KS_WLAN_DEBUG > (n)) \
			prink(...); \
	} while (0)

Thanks,
Matthew Kilgore
