[PATCH] ipw2200: always enable frequently used debugging code
Moving part of the debugging code from IPW_DEBUG to IPW_LL_DEBUG (low level debugging) and make IPW_DEBUG be always enabled. IPW_LL_DEBUG still needs to be enabled by selecting CONFIG_IPW2200_DEBUG. But it is highly deprecated for normal users since it adds higher debug verbosity in driver hot paths. Signed-off-by: Zhu Yi <yi.zhu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
