Subject: [PATCH 1/3] autofs: remove possibly misleading /* #define DEBUG */

From: Tomohiro Kusumi <kusumi.tomohiro@...il.com>

Having this in autofs_i.h gives illusion that uncommenting this
enables pr_debug(), but it doesn't enable all the pr_debug() in
autofs because inclusion order matters.

XFS has the same DEBUG macro in its core header fs/xfs/xfs.h,
however XFS seems to have a rule to include this prior to other
XFS headers as well as kernel headers. This is not the case with
autofs, and DEBUG could be enabled via Makefile, so autofs should
just get rid of this comment to make the code less confusing.
It's a comment, so there is literally no functional difference.
