trace_printk should not be used in production code, replace it call with pr_info.

trace_printk is meant as a debugging tool, and should not be compiled into production code without specific debug Kconfig options enabled, or source code changes, as indicated by the warning that shows up on boot if any trace_printk is called: ** NOTICE NOTICE NOTICE NOTICE NOTICE NOTICE NOTICE ** ** ** ** trace_printk() being used. Allocating extra memory. ** ** ** ** This means that this is a DEBUG kernel and it is ** ** unsafe for production use. **

If this option is set to n, the kernel will generate a build-time error if trace_printk is used.

Note that the code to handle trace_printk is still present, so this does not prevent people from compiling out-of-tree kernel modules with the option set to =y, or BPF programs.

Changes since v1: - Use static_assert instead of __static_assert (Jason Gunthorpe) - Fix issues that can be detected by this patch (running some randconfig in a loop, kernel test robot, or manual inspection), by: - Making some debug config options that use trace_printk depend on the new config option. - Adding 3 patches before this one.

There is a question from Alexei whether the warning is warranted, and it's possibly too strongly worded, but the fact is, we do not want trace_printk to be sprinkled in kernel code by default, unless a very specific Kconfig command is enabled (or preprocessor macro).

There's at least 3 reasons that I can come up with: 1. trace_printk introduces some overhead. 2. If the kernel keeps adding always-enabled trace_printk, it will be much harder for developers to make use of trace_printk for debugging. 3. People may assume that trace_printk is for debugging only, and may accidentally output sensitive data (theoritical at this stage).
