[PATCH 04/16] drm/debugfs: Add kerneldoc

I've decided to not document drm_debugfs_remove_files, it's on the way
out.

The biggest part is a huge todor.rst entry with what all should be
improved.

+Clean up the debugfs support
+----------------------------
+
+There's a bunch of issues with it:
+
+- The drm_info_list -> show function doesn't even bother to cast to the drm
+  structure for you. This is lazy.
+
+- We probably want to have some support for debugfs files on crtc/connectors and
+  maybe other kms objects directly in core. There's even drm_print support in
+  the funcs for these objects to dump kms state, so it's all there. And then the
+  ->show functions should obviously give you a pointer to the right object.
+
+- The drm_info_list stuff is centered on drm_minor instead of drm_device. For
+  anything we want to print drm_device (or maybe drm_file) is the right thing.
+
+- The drm_driver->debugfs_init hooks we have is just an artifact of the old
+  midlayered load sequence. DRM debugfs should work more like sysfs, where you
+  can create properties/files for an object anytime you want, and the core
+  takes care of publishing/unpuplishing all the files at register/unregister
+  time. Drivers shouldn't need to worry about these technicalities, and fixing
+  this (together with the drm_minor->drm_device move) would allow us to remove
+  debugfs_init.
