Wouldn't it make more sense to remove this macro from MALI driver? In recent Linux kernel, all TRACE_SYSTEM_STRING have been removed: ex, https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/6150651/

Similar patch has been merged in Xilinx Linux tree: https://github.com/Xilinx/linux-xlnx/commit/dadb5e41f28f9619debc9aae4ae543aa1dcd5be8

Thanks,
