There actually is a 'dev_dbg()' but when CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG is set,
I think dev_dbg() generates no output by default.  So to preserve the
previous behavior of "this message always appears in the dmesg log no
matter what the dynamic debug setting," I used dev_printk(KERN_DEBUG).

Somebody who maintains these drivers could probably go through and
convert these to either dev_info() or dev_dbg() depending on what they
need.  That would require more judgment than I wanted to get into :)

Thanks for taking a look at these!
