Yes. Drop the driver-specific wrappers where they don't make sense.
Use sensible format strings in the cases where it actually does (like
VIDENC or _PLANE)

It pretty much tries to overplay the existing drm debugging mechanism
by either sending the messages to the DRM channel or just using
pr_debug. With DYNAMIC_DEBUG being disabled pr_debug is just an empty
macro, so all the messages can end up in /dev/null. We should not be
trying to be too smart, using standard DRM_DEBUG_DRIVER should be
enough. This way all driver-related messages are controlled by
drm.debug including or excluding the 0x02 bit.

I pretty much think so.
