And is a first draft, very lightly tested.  Thoughts?

commit 4164efdca255093a423b55f44bd788b46d9c648f

    mm: Don't build mm_dump_obj() on CONFIG_PRINTK=n kernels
    
    The mem_dump_obj() functionality adds a few hundred bytes, which is a
    small price to pay.  Except on kernels built with CONFIG_PRINTK=n, in
    which mem_dump_obj() messages will be suppressed.  This commit therefore
    makes mem_dump_obj() be a static inline empty function on kernels built
    with CONFIG_PRINTK=n and excludes all of its support functions as well.
    This avoids kernel bloat on systems that cannot use mem_dump_obj().
