Perhaps another way to enable pr_debug use
is to reverse the order of dynamic_pr_debug
defines.

ie:  change printk.h:

#if defined(CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG)
/* dynamic_pr_debug() uses pr_fmt() internally so we don't need it here */
#define pr_debug(fmt, ...) \
	dynamic_pr_debug(fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__)
#elif defined(DEBUG)
#define pr_debug(fmt, ...) \
	printk(KERN_DEBUG pr_fmt(fmt), ##__VA_ARGS__)

and change dynamic_debug.h:

#define DPRINTK_FLAGS_DEFAULT 0

to:

#if defined DEBUG
#define DPRINTK_FLAGS_DEFAULT DPRINTK_FLAGS_PRINT
#else
#define DPRINT_FLAGS_DEFAULT 0
#endif

That seems pretty sensible to me.  Jason?
