[PATCH 15/17] dyndbg-API: remove DD_CLASS_TYPE_(DISJOINT|LEVEL)_NAMES and code

Jim Cromie
2026-05-04T20:45:37Z

Remove the DD_CLASS_TYPE_*_NAMES classmap types and code.

These 2 classmap types accept class names at the PARAM interface, for
example:

echo +DRM_UT_CORE,-DRM_UT_KMS > /sys/module/drm/parameters/debug_names

The code works, but its only used by test-dynamic-debug, and wasn't
asked for by anyone else, so reduce LOC & test-surface; simplify things.

Also rename enum class_map_type to enum ddebug_class_map_type.
