Both messages are missing the newline and thus dmesg output gets
scrambled.

The 'ret' variable is assigned, but not used in the return statement. Fix this.

<title>Driver core: fix 'dynamic_debug' cmd line parameter</title>

In testing 2.6.28-rc1, I found that passing 'dynamic_printk' on the command
line didn't activate the debug code. The problem is that dynamic_printk_setup()
(which activates the debugging) is being called before dynamic_printk_init() is
called (which initializes infrastructure). Fix this by setting setting the
state to 'DYNAMIC_ENABLED_ALL' in dynamic_printk_setup(), which will also
cause all subsequent modules to have debugging automatically started, which is
probably the behavior we want.

<title>driver core: basic infrastructure for per-module dynamic debug messages</title>

Base infrastructure to enable per-module debug messages.

I've introduced CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG, which when enabled centralizes
control of debugging statements on a per-module basis in one /proc file,
currently, &lt;debugfs&gt;/dynamic_printk/modules. When, CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG,
is not set, debugging statements can still be enabled as before, often by
defining 'DEBUG' for the proper compilation unit. Thus, this patch set has no
affect when CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG is not set.

The infrastructure currently ties into all pr_debug() and dev_dbg() calls. That
is, if CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG is set, all pr_debug() and dev_dbg() calls
can be dynamically enabled/disabled on a per-module basis.

Future plans include extending this functionality to subsystems, that define 
their own debug levels and flags.

Usage:

Dynamic debugging is controlled by the debugfs file, 
&lt;debugfs&gt;/dynamic_printk/modules. This file contains a list of the modules that
can be enabled. The format of the file is as follows:

	&lt;module_name&gt; &lt;enabled=0/1&gt;
		.
		.
		.

	&lt;module_name&gt; : Name of the module in which the debug call resides
	&lt;enabled=0/1&gt; : whether the messages are enabled or not

For example:

	snd_hda_intel enabled=0
	fixup enabled=1
	driver enabled=0

Enable a module:

	$echo "set enabled=1 &lt;module_name&gt;" &gt; dynamic_printk/modules

Disable a module:

	$echo "set enabled=0 &lt;module_name&gt;" &gt; dynamic_printk/modules

Enable all modules:

	$echo "set enabled=1 all" &gt; dynamic_printk/modules

Disable all modules:

	$echo "set enabled=0 all" &gt; dynamic_printk/modules

Finally, passing "dynamic_printk" at the command line enables
debugging for all modules. This mode can be turned off via the above
disable command.

[gkh: minor cleanups and tweaks to make the build work quietly]
