<within all cpufreq drivers>
#define DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CPU_FREQ 1

<dynamic_printk.h>
#ifdef DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CPU_FREQ
#define DYNAMIC_DEBUG_NUM_FLAGS "3"
...
#else
...
...
#endif


or -- even better -- could we determine the definition of
DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CPU_FREQ on the fly? It needs to be set to true for exactly all
"modules" which contain a call to cpufreq_debug_printk()...

Not that much of a nuiseance, IMO. Or SELECT CONFIG_DYNAMIC_PRINTK_DEBUG
when CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEBUG is enabled (if davej agrees ;) )
