Thanks for sharing your comments.

DRM_DEBUG statements are present in other parts of code as well. So 
didnot remove it.

Example below:
drivers/gpu/drm/v3d/v3d_gem.c at 322.

  311         job->bo = kvmalloc_array(job->bo_count,
  312                                  sizeof(struct drm_gem_cma_object *),
  313                                  GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_ZERO);
  314         if (!job->bo) {
  315                 DRM_DEBUG("Failed to allocate validated BO 
pointers\n");
  316                 return -ENOMEM;
  317         }
  318
  319         handles = kvmalloc_array(job->bo_count, sizeof(u32), 
GFP_KERNEL);
  320         if (!handles) {
  321                 ret = -ENOMEM;
  322                 DRM_DEBUG("Failed to allocate incoming GEM 
handles\n");
  323                 goto fail;
  324         }
