Hi Deepak,

usually log functions saying "we are here in the code" are not needed,
ftrace is designed for function tracing and other useful things.

I think this patch is aimed for substitution which is logically
different from deletion of function calls.

pr_info deletions can be provided in a separate patch.

Thank you,
