If guc.log.obj is found to be NULL, we consider logging can't be enabled 
at run time. Allocation of log buffer is supposed to done
at boot time only, otherwise GuC would have to be reset & firmware to be 
reloaded to pass the log buffer address at run time, which is probably 
not desirable. That's why in the first patch decoupled the allocation of 
log buffer from log_level value.

Ok can implement a dummy read back function but what should be 
shown/returned on read.

Should I show/return the guc_log_level value (which is also available 
from /sys/module/i915/parameters/) ?

for functions exported from i915_guc_submission.c file, dev_priv has 
been used.

Yes channel will be created only once, when logging is enabled for first 
time.
