[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 09/14] drm/i915: New module param to control the size of buffer used for storing GuC firmware logs

From: Akash Goel <akash.goel at intel.com>

On recieving the log buffer flush interrupt from GuC firmware, Driver
stores the snapshot of the log buffer in a local buffer, from which
Userspace can pull the logs. By default Driver store, up to, 4 snapshots
of the log buffer in a local buffer (managed by relay).
Added a new module (read only) param, 'guc_log_size', through which User
can specify the number of snapshots of log buffer to be stored in local
buffer. This can be used to ensure capturing of all boot time logs even
with high verbosity level.

v2: Rename module param to more apt name 'guc_log_buffer_nr'. (Nikula)
