How so? DRM_DEBUG() translates to DRM_UT_CORE category, which has been
intended for "generic drm code" since the beginning:

4fefcb27050b ("drm: add separate drm debugging levels")
87fdff81cd2d ("DRM: Add the explanation about DRM debug level")

Because there's so much DRM_DEBUG() usage across drivers, I've named the
new drm_device specific logging macros drm_dbg_core() for DRM_UT_CORE
and drm_dbg() for DRM_UT_DRIVER, with the idea that drm_dbg_core() would
be used exclusively for drivers/gpu/drm/drm_*.[ch].

BR,
Jani.
