This changes DRM_UT_CORE to DRM_UT_DRIVER so our typical drm.debug=0xe
becomes much more spammy.
This is what I've instructed Wambui to do in i915. It's my mistake that
I haven't requested this to be pointed out in the commit message.
DRM_DEBUG() and DRM_DEBUG_DRIVER() have been conflated over the
years. The former is supposed to be for drm core code only, but drivers
are littered with it. I'm hoping drivers are less likely to use the new
drm_dbg_core() which maps to DRM_DEBUG(). The shorter drm_dbg() is the
new DRM_DEBUG_DRIVER().
If you think drm.debug=0xe is too spammy now, the fix is not to abuse
DRM_UT_CORE as a spare category.
For i915 negative impact (in terms of amount of new logging produced) is
probably limited to CI runs. Maybe developer testing to a lesser extent.
I think wait and see approach will be okay.
