yes, that would be better than what we have now.

right, but I'm leaving this to a subsequent patch.

enabled by default.

So, I've re-spun the patch, with the above comments (below). Thanks!

Replace the repetitive  struct _ddebug descriptor definitions with
a new DECLARE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_META_DATA(name, fmt) macro.
