Yup,

Following is wrong:
DEBUG macro could be globally across drivers defined by
CONFIG_DEBUG_DRIVERS. See drivers/base/Makefile.
DEBUG is not defined globally. And there is no debug option to enable
DEBUG in drivers/xen/Makefile.
Should it be added?

I am not exactly sure why you guys insist on having this, but
the lets leave it as #if 0 along with a comment saying why and what
the purpose of this is.

From my understanding, the function has been implemented with the assumption of the page will always belongs to the domain and not foreign.

A user will unlikely know that it needs to remove #if 0 in order to check the driver is doing the right thing. So I think we should have an easy way to enable this code in kernel build.

If you are not happy with the Kconfig, what would be the other way to have this enabled without requiring the user to modify the code?

Cheers,
