Do not use your own print code. Use standard dev_() calls. This applies
*everywhere*.

Drop, tracing/sysfs gices you this. Do not print simple
success/entry/exit messages.

Why this is global? Why u32? Why global variable is defined at the end
of the file?!?!
cc33xx_debug_level together with cc33xx_debug/info/error() macros is how
all traces were done in drivers/net/wireless/ti/wlcore/ (originally was
wl1271_debug/info etc.)
It enables / disables traces without rebuilding or even reloading which
is very helpful for remote support. These macros map to dynamic_pr_debug
/ pr_debug. I saw similar wrappers in other wireless drivers (ath12k).
This is also why there are plenty of cc33xx_debug() all over the code,
most are silent by default.

Any more thoughts on debug traces? I'll remove all trivial function entry / exit traces as Krzysztof requested. Is it OK to keep other cc33xx_debug() calls which will be off by default?

Michael.
