GSP-RM writes its printf messages to "logging buffers", which are blocks
of memory allocated by the driver.  The messages are encoded, so exposing
the buffers as debugfs entries allows the buffers to be extracted and
decoded by a special application.

When the driver loads, a /sys/kernel/debug/nova_core root entry is
created.  To do this, the normal module_pci_driver! macro call is
replaced with an explicit initialization function, as this allows
that debugfs entry to be created once for all GPUs.

Then in each GPU's initialization, a subdirectory based on the PCI
BDF name is created, and the logging buffer entries are created under
that.

Note: the debugfs entry has a file size of 0, because debugfs defaults
a 0 size and the Rust abstractions do not adjust it for the same of
the object.  Nouveau makes this adjustment manually in the driver.

Changes since v10:
1. Rebased onto drm-rust-next. Eliot's patches are now in drm-rust-next.
2. Fixed some comments in nova_core.rs
3. Added missing Tested-by's in patch #6

Timur Tabi (6):
  rust: device: add device name method
  rust: uaccess: add write_dma() for copying from DMA buffers to
    userspace
  rust: dma: implement BinaryWriter for CoherentAllocation<u8>
  gpu: nova-core: Replace module_pci_driver! with explicit module init
  gpu: nova-core: create debugfs root in module init
  gpu: nova-core: create GSP-RM logging buffers debugfs entries
