[PATCH] staging: pi433: remove need to recompile code to debug fifo content

[Paulo Miguel Almeida]

Debugging content present in the FIFO register is tricky as when we read
the FIFO register that changes the content of fifo struct which reduces
number of possible ways of debugging it. Rf69 uC has the possibility of
triggering certain IRQs depending on how many items are in the FIFO
queue, so being able to know what's in there is an important way to
troubleshoot certain problems.

This patch removes the requirement of having to compile pi433 driver
with DEBUG_FIFO_ACCESS set and let that be driven by printk verbositity
level and/or dynamic debug config instead.

Meta-comments:

#1
In my mind, I didn't like the idea of having to change the code and then 
echo "module pi433 +p" > <debugfs>/dynamic_debug/control to only then
be able to read stuff being sent/retrieved from fifo. It felt somewhat
redundant at a certain level. On the other hand, I understand that
removing the conditional compilation will force a for-loop to iterate
for no real reason most of the time (max 66 iterations)... so I made a 
trade-off and in case anyone disagrees with that, just let me know and I
will be happy to change to a different approach.

#2
In the past, it's been pointed out to me during code review that I tend
to add code comments which could be omitted. In this case, the for-loop
seemed a bit odd without explaining why it's in there. Let me know if
you think I should keep/remove it.
