The WM8960 driver isn't in the standard Linux kernel yet, it is currently
distributed via the Wolfson web site.  None of the drivers included in
the standard Linux kernel were using their dbg() macros, though some had
such macros present.

The performance impact should be very minor - the digital mute is not
used in any hot paths and the output will only go do the dmesg buffer by
default so won't have the overhead of writing to the console.

Out of interest, which platform are you working with?
