Subject: [PATCH v4 08/14] dynamic_debug: move pr_err from module.c to ddebug_add_module

This serves two purposes: First, we get a diagnostic if (though
extremely unlikely), any of the calls of ddebug_add_module for built-in
code fails, effectively disabling dynamic_debug. Second, I want to make
struct _ddebug opaque, and avoid accessing any of its members outside
dynamic_debug.[ch].
