You mean like the drm debug functions runtime switching? that predated
the kernel ones and nobody ever ported :-)

Though if psb wants to be different to other drm drivers it can lead the
way, though it'll be a total nightmare for all the people who follow
documentation on how to debug drm drivers using drm.debug=1,2,4,8. for
various code paths.
