There is no such thing as ehci debug! So how can it be disabled?
There's only an individual setting for each line of debugging code.

No. What happens if dynamic debug is enabled for one line that calls
dbg_port_buf() but not for another? There's no way to avoid the string
formatting in both lines, even though one of them discards the result.
