Hi Randy & Joe,
I have seen the drivers/tty/n_gsm.c.
>From line 529 to line 540 in drivers/tty/n_gsm.c like following.

529 static void hex_packet(const unsigned char *p, int len)
530 {
531 int i;
532 for (i = 0; i < len; i++) {
533 if (i && (i % 16) == 0) {
534 pr_cont("\n");
535 pr_debug("");
536 }
537 pr_cont("%02X ", *p++);
538 }
539 pr_cont("\n");
540 }

Should we need the line 535? If true, i wanna the function of
'pr_debug("");'

Thanks.
Harry Wei.
