These macros have been deprecated, is this waht you meant by the 
conversion to proper drm_debug_*?

/* NOTE: this is deprecated in favor of drm_dbg(NULL, ...). */
#define DRM_DEBUG_DRIVER(fmt, ...)                                      \
         __drm_dbg(DRM_UT_DRIVER, fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__)

I think all that this macro was doing was to have appropriate DRM_UT_* 
macros enabled before calling the corresponding DRM_DEBUG_* macros. But 
I think what was incorrect here is for DPU_DEBUG, we could have used 
DRM_UT_CORE instead of DRM_UT_KMS.

And DRM_DEBUG_DRIVER should have been used instead of DRM_ERROR.

Was this causing the issue of the prints not getting enabled?
