Subject: 2.6.20/i386 copy_e820_map debug messages left "on" during boot

Just verifying -- It's probably already fixed, but when the e820_map 
routine was moved to a separate file in the 386 architecture, what
appear to be debugging messages were left "on" for display on boot.
Were(/are) these intended to be temporary?
