That's not a sentence.

But what is the point of this statement?

Can you please use a proper tag, i.e. Suggested-by and not invent some
random free form text just because?

Q: Against which tree is this supposed to apply?
A: Against some private tree of yours which added the pr_debug() in a

Can you please read and follow Documentation/process/ and provide
patches which actually can be applied without fixing them up manually?
Thanks,
