dynamic_debug: init with early_initcall, not arch_initcall
1- Call dynamic_debug_init() from early_initcall, not arch_initcall. 2- Call dynamic_debug_init_debugfs() from fs_initcall, not module_init. RFC: This works for me on a 64 bit desktop and a i586 SBC, but is untested on other arches. I presume there is or was a reason original code used arch_initcall, maybe the constraints have changed. This makes facility available as soon as possible. 2nd change has a downside when dynamic_debug.verbose=1; all the vpr_info()s called in the proc-fs code are activated, causing voluminous output from dmesg. TBD: Im unsure of this explanation, but the output is there. This could be fixed by changing those callsites to v2pr_info(if verbose > 1). 1st change is still not early enough to enable pr_debugs in kernel/params, so parsing of boot-args isnt logged. The reparse of those args is however visible after params.dyndbg="+p" is processed.
