[PATCH v6 00/22] fix DRM_USE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG regression

This series fixes the regression in DRM_USE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=y

blame analysis: (all mine)

1. my early test scripts did a lot of 'modprobe $m $*',
   with dyndbg=.. and debug=.. args
   this obscured the lack of drm.debug -> drivers propagation

2. I broke K&R rule: "define once, refer many times".
   the classmaps DECLAREd by the drivers would run on args in 1

The thinko beneath that was imitating the "static struct" in the
definition of DEFINE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_METADATA.  Imitating __drm_debug
export instead broke the mental logjam.

So the patchset splits DECLARE_DYNDBG_CLASSMAP duty in 2: with
DYNDBG_CLASSMAP_DEFINE/_USE, where _DEFINE exports the classmap, so
_USE can reference it.  The _USEs are added into a new section:
__dyndbg_class_users.

ddebug_add_module() now also scans class_users at modprobe time,
whence it finds the kernel-param that refs the classmap, and applies
its initialized state to the user/driver.

test-dynamic-debug is extended with a _submod, allowing it to
recapitulate the drm.ddebug -/-> drivers failure scenario.


NOTE: patch-14 does the DECLARE -> _DEFINE/_USE, so it also changes
DRM to follow the API change.  That makes it buildable, but crosses 2
trees, which isn't so great.  But since the feature is marked BROKEN
at this point, perhaps I should have split them.

Finally 3 DRM patches: drops BROKEN on DRM_USE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG, fixes
drm/Makefile, and wires a bunch more drivers to _USE DRM's
drm_debug_classmap.

You can bang at the test module with:
#!/bin/bash

ddcmd () {
    echo $* > /proc/dynamic_debug/control
}
vx () {
    echo $1 > /sys/module/dynamic_debug/parameters/verbose
}
ddgrep () {
    grep $1 /proc/dynamic_debug/control
}
doprints () {
    cat   /sys/module/test_dynamic_debug/parameters/do_prints
}

note () {
    echo NOTE: $* >&2
    $*
}
ddparms () {
    note ls -l /sys/module/test_dynamic_debug/parameters/
    note cat   /sys/module/test_dynamic_debug/parameters/*
}
up () {
    modprobe drm debug=0x03 debug_trace=0x1ff
}
dn () {
    rmmod drm
}
ddtraceon () {
    echo 1 > /sys/kernel/tracing/tracing_on
    echo 1 > /sys/kernel/tracing/events/dyndbg/enable
}

# replay drm.debug dependent-module scenario
submod () {
    echo  MP test_dynamic_debug $1 $2 dyndbg=+pm $3 $4

    # extra complexity to avoid passing param=s since theyre explicit inits
    if [[ -z $1 ]] ; then
	modprobe test_dynamic_debug dyndbg=+pm
    elif [[ -z $2 ]] ; then
	modprobe test_dynamic_debug dyndbg=+pm \
		 p_disjoint_bits=${1:-0}
    elif [[ -z $3 ]] ; then
	# force 3,4 off, undoing DEBUG - declutter
	modprobe test_dynamic_debug dyndbg=+pm \
		 p_disjoint_bits=${1:-0} p_level_num=${2:-0}
		 # p_disjoint_names=${3:-MID,-LOW,-HI} p_level_names=${4:-L3}
    elif [[ -z $4 ]] ; then
	modprobe test_dynamic_debug dyndbg=+pm \
		 p_disjoint_bits=${1:-0} p_level_num=${2:-0}
		 # p_disjoint_names=${3:-MID}
    else
	modprobe test_dynamic_debug dyndbg=+pm \
		 p_disjoint_bits=${1:-0} p_level_num=${2:-0}
		 # p_disjoint_names=${3:-MID} p_level_names=${4:-L3}
    fi
    
    # _submod should pick up kparams
    echo  MP test_dynamic_debug_submod dyndbg=+pmf
    modprobe test_dynamic_debug_submod dyndbg=+pmf
}
unmod () {
    rmmod test_dynamic_debug_submod
    rmmod test_dynamic_debug
}

# The test:
submod_test () {
    unmod
    submod $*
    sleep 1
    
    note "above submod.s D2_* prdbgs should have printed"
    note "because they are enabled here:"
    ddgrep _submod

    echo 1 > /sys/module/test_dynamic_debug/parameters/do_prints

    note submod prdbgs should print here
    echo 1 > /sys/module/test_dynamic_debug_submod/parameters/do_prints
}

# old-code: triggered jump-label init panic, fixed by doing
# dyndbg-init in notifier, after jump-label
submod_force () {
    unmod
    submod $*
    sleep 1
    # force all classes off, then on
    note trigger toggled warning by turning off the supposed enabled prdbgs in submod

    echo 0     > /sys/module/test_dynamic_debug/parameters/disjoint_bits
    echo 0x2ff > /sys/module/test_dynamic_debug/parameters/disjoint_bits
