[ Upstream commit c26ec799042a3888935d59b599f33e41efedf5f8 ]
When printk-indexing is enabled, each dev_printk() invocation emits a
pi_entry structure. This is even true when the dev_printk() is
protected by an always-false check, as is typically the case for debug
messages: while the actual code to print the message is optimized out by
the compiler, the pi_entry structure is still emitted.
Avoid emitting pi_entry structures for unavailable dev_printk() kernel
messages by:
1. Introducing a dev_no_printk() helper, mimicked after the existing
no_printk() helper, which calls _dev_printk() instead of
dev_printk(),
2. Replacing all "if (0) dev_printk(...)" constructs by calls to the
new helper.
This reduces the size of an arm64 defconfig kernel with
CONFIG_PRINTK_INDEX=y by 957 KiB.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
