I've though about that, but I don't see it as a big problem. Only
"DEBUG" tends to be misused in v2, but we can easily avoid that by
using DEBUG_SMBUS, DEBUG_FOOBAR #defines in v3 (if at all; all of
those custom DEBUG #defines should be printk()-loglevels anyway;
I think the reason for DEBUG in v2 is usually romcc/size relåted(?))

If we all desperately want a prefix, how about something really short,
e.g. LDEBUG, LWARN, LINFO, ... ? I'd really like to keep the printk()
lines as short as possible for readability reasons.
