[PATCH v2 10/27] dyndbg: let query-modname override defaulting modname

[Jim Cromie <jim.cromie@gmail.com>]

dyndbg's control-parser: ddebug_parse_query(), requires that search
terms: module, func, file, lineno, are not used 2x in a query; a thing
cannot be named both foo and bar (not even wildcards, no OR is
contemplated).

Amend the treatment of module; while still enforcing the 2x rule on
it, set the default module at end, if none was given in the query
itself, so the preset doesn't spoil the check.

Background:

ddebug_parse_query() got a modname arg to support boot-args with
compound queries, all with "module aMod" added by default.

  aMod.dyndbg="func foo +p; func bar +p"

With default module at end, this becomes possible; "module *" in the
query overrides the default "module aMod".

  aMod.dyndbg="module * class FOO +p"

This means aMod can modify (by explicit means) any FOO class'd
pr_debugs in other modules.  It is intended for use by DRM, which
generally would want sub-system wide coordination.
