[PATCH v2 30/59] dyndbg: drop "protection" of class'd pr_debugs from legacy queries

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

Current classmap code protects class'd pr_debugs from unintended
changes by "legacy" unclassed queries:

  # this doesn't disable all of DRM_UT_* categories
  echo "-p" > /proc/dynamic_debug/control

  # name the class to change it - protective but tedious
  echo "class DRM_UT_CORE +p" > /proc/dynamic_debug/control

  # or do it the subsystem way
  echo 1 > /sys/module/drm/parameters/debug

This "name the class to change it" behavior gave a modicum of
protection to classmap users (ie DRM) so their debug settings aren't
trivially and unintentionally altered underneath them.

But this made the class keyword special in some sense; the other
keywords skip only on explicit mismatch, otherwize the code falls thru
to adjust the pr-debug site.

So Jason Baron didn't like this special case when I 1st proposed it;
I argued 2 points:
- "protection gives stable-debug, improving utility"
- __drm_debug is authoritative w/o dyndbg under it.

I thought I'd convinced him back then, (and the patchset got merged),
but he noted it again when he reviewed this series.  So this commit
names the "special case": ddebug_client_module_protects_classes(), and
reverts it to Jason's preference.

If a class mismatch is seen, code distinguishes whether the class was
explicitly given (and always skips/continue), or the DFLT was assumed
because no class was given.  Here we test
ddebug_client_module_protects_classes(), skip if so.

Later, if any user/module wants to protect its classes, we could add a
flag to ddebug_table, a means to set it from CLASSMAP_DEFINE, and
check it when applying a classless query/cmd.
