kernel/cred.c: remove unnecessary kdebug atomic reads

Commit e0e817392b9a ("CRED: Add some configurable debugging [try #6]")
added the kdebug mechanism to this file back in 2009.

The kdebug macro calls no_printk which always evaluates arguments.

Most of the kdebug uses have an unnecessary call of
atomic_read(&cred->usage)

Make the kdebug macro do nothing by defining it with
do { if (0) no_printk(...); } while (0)
when not enabled.

$ size kernel/cred.o* (defconfig x86-64)
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
   2748     336       8    3092     c14 kernel/cred.o.new
   2788     336       8    3132     c3c kernel/cred.o.old

Miscellanea:
o Neaten the #define kdebug macros while there
