Collapsing "gvt: core: " to "gvt:core: " is a better class-prefix; dropping the internal spaces means a trailing space in a query will more clearly terminate the prefix.
Consider a generic drm-debug example:
# turn off most ATOMIC reports echo format "^drm:atomic: " -p > control
# turn off all ATOMIC:* reports echo format "^drm:atomic:" -p > control
# turn on ATOMIC:FAIL reports echo format "^drm:atomic:fail: " +p > control
Removing embedded spaces in the class-prefixes simplifies the corresponding match-prefix. This means that "quoted" match-prefixes are only needed when the trailing space is desired, in order to exclude explicitly sub-categorized pr-debugs; in this example, "drm:atomic:fail:".
RFC: maybe the prefix catenation should paste in the " " class-prefix terminator explicitly. A pr_debug_() flavor could exclude the " ", allowing ad-hoc sub-categorization by appending for example, "fail:" to "drm:atomic:".
