[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v3] drm/i915: Use trace_printk to provide a death rattle for GEM

Trying to enable printk debugging for GEM is fraught with the issue of
spam; interactions with HW are very frequent and often boring. However,
one instance where they are not so boring is just before a BUG; here
ftrace provides a facility to dump its ringbuffer on an oops. So for CI
let's enable trace_printk() to capture the last exchanges with HW as a
death rattle.

For example,

v2: Tweak the formatting to be more consistent between in/out.
v3: do {} while (0) stub macro protection
