Multiple netdev_info messages clutter kernel output. Also add netdev_dbg for packets per slave.

Is defining DEBUG really worthwhile.

As well, it's almost always just
#define DEBUG
without any level value unless the
level value is used in the code.

Please realign any multiple line arguments to the
open parenthesis at the same time.

	I don't believe so, since if CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG is not
enabled, having #define DEBUG will enable all of the netdev_dbg messages
unconditionally, which is the opposite of the stated purpose of the
patch.  If DYNAMIC_DEBUG is enabled, having DEBUG doesn't do anything
that I can see.

Question was really if it's worthwhile to have
that logging always emitted at debug level or if
it's only useful when debugging.

I generally think smaller object code is better
and if it's not necessary, debugging output is
better not enabled/compiled into the kernel.

Having #define DEBUG means that by default the
dynamic_debug output logging is enabled in the
control file, otherwise it's not emitted unless
it's specifically enabled by a user.

include/linux/dynamic_debug.h:#ifdef DEBUG
include/linux/dynamic_debug.h-#define DEFINE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_METADATA(name, fmt) \
include/linux/dynamic_debug.h-  DEFINE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_METADATA_KEY(name, fmt, .key.dd_key_true, \
include/linux/dynamic_debug.h-                                    (STATIC_KEY_TRUE_INIT))
