And for all those concerned about since we need options to cut away _all_
the debug strings. Well _all_ the printk output even. Wasting a bit more
space for easier debug is imo more than worth it.

So please make this a proper patch and let's get this in. For hilarity
maybe cc: lkml and ask get_maintainers who might be interested in a
generic version ... But I think we want the i915 one in asap.
