Subject: [PATCH 01/31] Dynamic Debug: Split out query string parsing/setup from proc_write

From: Thomas Renninger <trenn@...e.de>

The parsing and applying of dynamic debug strings is not only useful for
/sys/../dynamic_debug/control write access, but can also be used for
boot parameter parsing.
The boot parameter is introduced in a follow up patch.
