All of those can work just fine using dev_dbg() today, no need to make
anything special for the driver. You can turn those messages on/off
with no need to ever rebuild your driver, which is the key point.

Nope, just use dev_dbg() only please. It provides MUCH more
funcationality and a unified interface with the rest of the kernel.
Please do not attempt to "roll your own" version of debugging macros for
just a single driver.
