Why?
We converted the entire tree over the print_mac(), and since
the MAC_FMT stuff was therefore no longer used we could
remove it.
Some references slipped back in somehow, and thus MAC_FMT
did too.
There is no reason to keep around a global interface for
_one_ user when that user can use the recommended interface
just as equally as the rest of the tree which we converted.
This is a pr_debug() statement we're talking about here.
:-)
The way pr_debug is implemented it still results in two function
calls per packet since the compiler doesn't know that it doesn't
have visible side-effects besides modifying the (unused) buffer.
I confirmed this using codiff.
