hello all,

commit aad0214f3026 ("dyndbg: add DECLARE_DYNDBG_CLASSMAP macro")

added dyndbg's "classmaps" feature, which brought dyndbg's 0-off-cost
debug to DRM.  Dyndbg wired to /sys/module/drm/parameters/debug,
mapped its bits to classes named "DRM_UT_*", and effected the callsite
enablements only on updates to the sys-node (and underlying >control).

Sadly, it hit a CI failure, resulting in:
commit bb2ff6c27bc9 ("drm: Disable dynamic debug as broken")

The regression was that drivers, when modprobed, did not get the
drm.debug=0xff turn-on action, because that had already been done for
drm.ko itself.

The core design bug is in the DECLARE_DYNDBG_CLASSMAP macro.  Its use
in both drm.ko (ie core) and all drivers.ko meant that they couldn't
fundamentally distinguish their respective roles.  They each
"re-defined" the classmap separately, breaking K&R-101.

My ad-hoc test scripting helped to hide the error from me, by 1st
testing various combos of boot-time module.dyndbg=... and
drm.debug=... configurations, and then inadvertently relying upon
those initializations.

This series addresses both failings:

It replaces DECLARE_DYNDBG_CLASSMAP with

- `DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_DEFINE`: Used by core modules (e.g.,
  `drm.ko`) to define their classmaps.  Based upon DECLARE, it exports
  the classmap so USE can use it.

- `DYNAMIC_DEBUG_CLASSMAP_USE`: this lets other "subsystem" users
  create a linkage to the classmap defined elsewhere (ie drm.ko).
  These users can then find their "parent" and apply its settings.

It adds a selftest script, and a 2nd "sub-module" to recapitulate
DRM's multi-module "subsystem" use-case, including the specific
failure scenario.

It also adds minor parsing enhancements, allowing easier construction
of multi-part debug configurations.  These enhancements are used to
test classmaps in particular, but are not otherwize required.

v7 adds:
. WARN_ONCE when classmap isnt found for a class'd callsite, JBaron
. reorder macro args to match kdoc, JBaron
. Doc formatting fixes, by Bagas

Thank you for your review.

P.S. Id also like to "tease" some other work:

1. patchset to send pr_debugs to tracefs on +T flag

   allows 63 "private" tracebufs, 1 "common" one (at 0)
   "drm.debug_2trace=0x1ff" is possible
   from Lukas Bartoski

2. patchset to save 40% of DATA_DATA footprint

   move (modname,filename,function) to struct _ddebug_site
   save their descriptor intervals to 3 maple-trees
   3 accessors fetch on descriptor, from trees
   move __dyndbg_sites __section to INIT_DATA

3. patchset to cache dynamic-prefixes
   should hide 2.s cost increase.

ddebug_change() is a big (~100 lines) function with a nested for loop.

The outer loop walks the per-module ddebug_tables list, and does
module stuff: it filters on a query's "module FOO*" and "class BAR",
failures here skip the entire inner loop.

The inner loop (60 lines) scans a module's descriptors.  It starts
with a long block of filters on function, line, format, and the
validated "BAR" class (or the legacy/_DPRINTK_CLASS_DFLT).

These filters "continue" past pr_debugs that don't match the query
criteria, before it falls through the code below that counts matches,
then adjusts the flags and static-keys.  This is unnecessarily hard to
think about.

So move the per-descriptor filter-block into a boolean function:
ddebug_match_desc(desc), and change each "continue" to "return false".
This puts a clear interface in place, so any future changes are either
inside, outside, or across this interface.

also fix checkpatch complaints about spaces and braces.
