On thinking about it some more the proper way to redo this would have
been to remove the bogus check.  Also a couple trivial things below.

This doesn't make sense.  Why are we crapping out just because we can't
print some useless debug info?

Debugging code annoys me because of stuff like this.  Debugging code is
buggier than normal code because it never gets tested.  It complicates
the code.  People think they are helping when they add lots of debug
code, but normally they are just making the situation worse.

Also it bloats the kernel a bit.

Just remove this whole block because it is ifdef 0.

This isn't indented correctly.

This condition is never true.  Don't add tests if you know the answer.

This isn't indented correctly.  I wish checkpatch.pl would catch that...
Anyway, the else side can be removed as explained earlier.
