For adding the wrappers in general, I'm going to disagree and
commit. I'll leave it up to Tvrtko and Joonas.

Regarding the placement of the macros, I insist you add individual
header files for the wrappers and include them only where needed.

We have a fairly serious problem with everything including everything in
i915 that I've been slowly trying to tackle. Touch one thing, rebuild
everything. About a third of our headers cause the rebuild of the entire
driver when modified. We need to reduce the surface of things that cause
rebuilds.

For example, intel_gt.h is included by 97 files, intel_guc.h by 332
files, and intel_huc.h by 329 files (counting recursively).

There's absolutely no reason any of the display code, for example, needs
to have these logging macros in their build. Long term, the headers
should be reorganized to reduce the interdependencies, and this is what
I've been doing in i915_drv.h and display/ in general. But the least we
can do is not make the problem worse.

BR,
Jani.
