Let's be user-friendly and print an actually helpful parameter
description.

This makes modinfo output the debug parameter like this:

parm:           debug:Enable debug output, where each bit enables a debug category.
		Bit 0 (0x01) will enable CORE messages (drm core code)
		Bit 1 (0x02) will enable DRIVER messages (drm controller code)
		Bit 2 (0x04) will enable KMS messages (modesetting code)
		Bit 3 (0x08) will enable PRIME messages (prime code)
		Bit 4 (0x10) will enable ATOMIC messages (atomic code)
		Bit 5 (0x20) will enable VBL messages (vblank code) (int)

Changes from v1:

  * Fixed s/PRMIE/PRIME typo.
  * Add ATOMIC and VBL debug parameter documentation.
  * Prefix the continuation lines with two tabs and
    removed the last new line.
  * Remove spurious whitespace.

History
Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
