Interesting. Nothing another level of abstraction can't solve. ;)

Except maybe it'll make adding function names to debug printers harder.

No strong feelings either way about it, I'll let others chime in.

A few comments inline.

Subtle. Might warrant adding a union in struct drm_printer for clarity.

Just p is customary for the drm_printer. "dp" gives me too much Display
