drm: Make drm.debug parameter description more helpful
Let's be user-friendly and print an actually helpful parameter
description.
This makes modinfo output the debug parameter like this:
parm: debug:Enable debug output, where each bit enables a debug category.
Bit 0 (0x01) will enable CORE messages (drm core code)
Bit 1 (0x02) will enable DRIVER messages (drm controller code)
Bit 2 (0x04) will enable KMS messages (modesetting code)
Bit 3 (0x08) will enable PRIME messages (prime code)
Bit 4 (0x10) will enable ATOMIC messages (atomic code)
Bit 5 (0x20) will enable VBL messages (vblank code) (int)
Changes from v1:
* Fixed s/PRMIE/PRIME typo.
* Add ATOMIC and VBL debug parameter documentation.
* Prefix the continuation lines with two tabs and
removed the last new line.
* Remove spurious whitespace.
