Since you are working on it, can you also get rid of this DBG_*
parameter, if rtlwifi maintainers are ok with that? It is additional
console loglvevel, standard kernel loglevel should be used.

Not quite, all of the RT_PRINT_DATA are emitted at KERN_DEBUG.
These DBG_*s are just a normal debug verbosity level.

It does seem odd though to have a DBG_EMERG and not always
emit it.

Those are always logged, no matter what debug level is set.

What might also be useful for any embedded use is to add
CONFIG_RTLWIFI_DEBUG to conditionally remove all of the
debug logging code to reduce the largish object size.

This reduces the object size by about 1/3 (250KB)
when CONFIG_RTLWIFI_DEBUG is not set.

$ size drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/built-in.o*
text data bss dec hex filename
368722 55333 94224 518279 7e887 drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/built-in.o.new

This change seems sensible to me.
