Fix a similar endless event loop as was done in commit
8dcf32175b ("i2c: prevent endless uevent loop with
CONFIG_I2C_DEBUG_CORE"):
The culprit is the dev_dbg printk in the i2c uevent handler. If
this is activated (for instance by CONFIG_I2C_DEBUG_CORE) it results
in an endless loop with systemd-journald.
This happens if user-space scans the system log and reads the uevent
file to get information about a newly created device, which seems
fair use to me. Unfortunately reading the "uevent" file uses the
same function that runs for creating the uevent for a new device,
generating the next syslog entry
Both CONFIG_I2C_DEBUG_CORE and CONFIG_POWER_SUPPLY_DEBUG were reported
in https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=76886 but only former
seems to have been fixed. Drop debug prints as it was done in I2C
subsystem to resolve the issue.

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.
