dev_printk: Add and use dev_no_printk()
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
When printk-indexing is enabled, each dev_printk() invocation emits a
pi_entry structure.  This is even true when the dev_printk() is
protected by an always-false check, as is typically the case for debug
messages: while the actual code to print the message is optimized out by
the compiler, the pi_entry structure is still emitted.

Avoid emitting pi_entry structures for unavailable dev_printk() kernel
messages by:
  1. Introducing a dev_no_printk() helper, mimicked after the existing
     no_printk() helper, which calls _dev_printk() instead of
     dev_printk(),
  2. Replacing all "if (0) dev_printk(...)" constructs by calls to the
     new helper.

This reduces the size of an arm64 defconfig kernel with
CONFIG_PRINTK_INDEX=y by 957 KiB.
