This part could be possible. But

how to handle

part used by e.g. pr_devel() ? Since this macro is not using dynamic debug
interface, vprintk_store() will not be called from the beginning. Are you
suggesting that we should convert no_printk() to use dynamic debug interface ?

I don't know whether enabling only in linux-next makes sense. Since not all tests
are equally done on each git tree, available only in linux-next will not be able
to cover all callers. Just using CONFIG_TWIST_ALWAYS_EVALUATE_PRINTK_ARGUMENTS=y
and CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=n is the simplest.
