When calling debugfs functions, there is no need to ever check the
return value. The function can work or not, but the code logic should
never do something different based on this.

Now that we store the passed-in string directly in ddebug_add_module, we
can use pointer equality instead of strcmp. This is a little more
efficient, but more importantly, this also makes the code somewhat more
correct:
Currently, if one loads and then unloads a module whose name happens to
match the KBUILD_MODNAME of some built-in functionality (which need not
even be modular at all), all of their dynamic debug entries vanish along
with those of the actual module. For example, loading and unloading a
core.ko hides all pr_debugs from drivers/base/core.c and other built-in
files called core.c (incidentally, there is an in-tree module whose name
is core, but I just tested this with an out-of-tree trivial one).

Currently, CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL just means "I _want_ to use jump label".
The jump label is controlled by HAVE_JUMP_LABEL, which is defined
like this:
#if defined(CC_HAVE_ASM_GOTO) && defined(CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL)
# define HAVE_JUMP_LABEL
#endif
We can improve this by testing 'asm goto' support in Kconfig, then
make JUMP_LABEL depend on CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO.
Ugly #ifdef HAVE_JUMP_LABEL will go away, and CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL will
match to the real kernel capability.

Using seq_open_private() removes boilerplate code from ddebug_proc_open().
The resultant code is shorter and easier to follow.
This patch does not change any functionality.

Add wildcard '*'(matches zero or more characters) and '?' (matches one
character) support when qurying debug flags.
Now we can open debug messages using keywords. eg:
1. open debug logs in all usb drivers
echo "file drivers/usb/* +p" > <debugfs>/dynamic_debug/control
2. open debug logs for usb xhci code
echo "file *xhci* +p" > <debugfs>/dynamic_debug/control

Settings of the form, 'line x module y +p', can fail arbitrarily due to an
uninitialized local variable. With this patch results are consistent, as
expected.
