Through a cooperative effort between Hsin-Yi Wang and Dmitry Baryshkov, we have realized the dev_err() in the mipi_dsi_*_write_seq() macros was causing quite a bit of bloat to the kernel. Let's hoist this call into drm_mipi_dsi.c by adding a "chatty" version of the functions that includes the print. While doing this, add a bit more comments to these macros making it clear that they print errors and also that they return out of _the caller's_ function.
Without any changes to clients this gives a nice savings. Specifically the macro was inlined and thus the error report call was inlined into every call to mipi_dsi_dcs_write_seq() and mipi_dsi_generic_write_seq(). By using a call to a "chatty" function, the usage is reduced to one call in the chatty function and a function call at the invoking site. Building with my build system shows one example: $ scripts/bloat-o-meter \ .../before/panel-novatek-nt36672e.ko \ .../after/panel-novatek-nt36672e.ko add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/1 up/down: 0/-4404 (-4404) Function old new delta nt36672e_1080x2408_60hz_init 10640 6236 -4404 Total: Before=15055, After=10651, chg -29.25% Note that given the change in location of the print it's harder to include the "cmd" in the printout for mipi_dsi_dcs_write_seq() since, theoretically, someone could call the new chatty function with a zero-size array and it would be illegal to dereference data[0]. There's a printk format to print the whole buffer and this is probably more useful for debugging anyway. Given that we're doing this for mipi_dsi_dcs_write_seq(), let's also print the buffer for mipi_dsi_generic_write_seq() in the error case. It should be noted that the current consensus of DRM folks is that the mipi_dsi_*_write_seq() should be deprecated due to the non-intuitive return behavior. A future patch will formally mark them as deprecated and provide an alternative.
