drm/dp_mst: Add topology ref history tracking for debugging
For very subtle mistakes with topology refs, it can be rather difficult
to trace them down with the debugging info that we already have. I had
one such issue recently while trying to implement suspend/resume
reprobing for MST, and ended up coming up with this.
Inspired by Chris Wilson's wakeref tracking for i915, this adds a very
similar feature to the DP MST helpers, which allows for partial tracking
of topology refs for both ports and branch devices. This is a lot less
advanced then wakeref tracking: we merely keep a count of all of the
spots where a topology ref has been grabbed or dropped, then dump out
that history in chronological order when a port or branch device's
topology refcount reaches 0. So far, I've found this incredibly useful
for debugging topology refcount errors.
Since this has the potential to be somewhat slow and loud, we add an
expert kernel config option to enable or disable this feature,
CONFIG_DRM_DEBUG_DP_MST_TOPOLOGY_REFS.
Changes since v1:
* Don't forget to destroy topology_ref_history_lock
Changes since v4:
* Correct order of kref_put()/topology_ref_history_unlock - we can't
unlock the history after kref_put() since the memory might have been
freed by that point
* Don't print message on allocation error failures, the kernel already
does this for us
Changes since v5:
* Get rid of some leftover usages of %px
* Remove a leftover empty return; statement
