drm: Refresh the explanation of debug categories



That comment wasn't super-readable, so I tried to improve it:

- Put the comment before the values it's documenting
- Add a mention to PRIME
- Reword things a bit to be a lighter read
- Add a note about the option to set the debug value at run-time

/*
 * Three debug levels are defined.
 * drm_core, drm_driver, drm_kms
 * drm_core level can be used in the generic drm code. For example:
 * 	drm_ioctl, drm_mm, drm_memory
 * The macro definition of DRM_DEBUG is used.
 * 	DRM_DEBUG(fmt, args...)
 * 	The debug info by using the DRM_DEBUG can be obtained by adding
 * 	the boot option of "drm.debug=1".
 * 4 debug categories are defined:
 *
 * CORE: Used in the generic drm code: drm_ioctl.c, drm_mm.c, drm_memory.c, ...
 *	 This is the category used by the DRM_DEBUG() macro.
 *
 * DRIVER: Used in the vendor specific part of the driver: i915, radeon, ...
 *	   This is the category used by the DRM_DEBUG_DRIVER() macro.
 *
 * drm_driver level can be used in the specific drm driver. It is used
 * to add the debug info related with the drm driver. For example:
 * i915_drv, i915_dma, i915_gem, radeon_drv,
 * 	The macro definition of DRM_DEBUG_DRIVER can be used.
 * 	DRM_DEBUG_DRIVER(fmt, args...)
 * 	The debug info by using the DRM_DEBUG_DRIVER can be obtained by
 * 	adding the boot option of "drm.debug=0x02"
 * KMS: used in the modesetting code.
 *	This is the category used by the DRM_DEBUG_KMS() macro.
 *
 * drm_kms level can be used in the KMS code related with specific drm driver.
 * It is used to add the debug info related with KMS mode. For example:
 * the connector/crtc ,
 * 	The macro definition of DRM_DEBUG_KMS can be used.
 * 	DRM_DEBUG_KMS(fmt, args...)
 * 	The debug info by using the DRM_DEBUG_KMS can be obtained by
 * 	adding the boot option of "drm.debug=0x04"
 * PRIME: used in the prime code.
 *	  This is the category used by the DRM_DEBUG_PRIME() macro.
 *
 * If we add the boot option of "drm.debug=0x06", we can get the debug info by
 * using the DRM_DEBUG_KMS and DRM_DEBUG_DRIVER.
 * If we add the boot option of "drm.debug=0x05", we can get the debug info by
 * using the DRM_DEBUG_KMS and DRM_DEBUG.
 * Enabling verbose debug messages is done through the drm.debug parameter,
 * each category being enabled by a bit.
 *
 * drm.debug=0x1 will enable CORE messages
 * drm.debug=0x2 will enable DRIVER messages
 * drm.debug=0x3 will enable CORE and DRIVER messages
 * ...
 * drm.debug=0xf will enable all messages
 *
 * An interesting feature is that it's possible to enable verbose logging at
 * run-time by echoing the debug value in its sysfs node:
 *   # echo 0xf > /sys/module/drm/parameters/debug
