s390/debug: Do not repeat parameter override notice on debug_set_level()

Browse source

Commit a2cec68637 ("s390/debug: Add s390dbf kernel parameter") calls
debug_get_param() from both debug_info_create() and debug_set_level().
Since debug_get_param() emits the override notice unconditionally, and
drivers typically call debug_set_level() right after debug_register(),
the same line is printed twice per debug area:

  s390dbf: 0.0.1234: override level to 6
  s390dbf: 0.0.1234: override level to 6

For areas registered per device this is multiplied by the device count.
With 's390dbf=0.0.*:6' a system with many DASDs emits a large number of
redundant lines during boot.

Add a quiet parameter to debug_get_param() and pass quiet=true from
debug_set_level(), where the override has already been announced during
registration. The remaining callers keep printing the notice.
