Subject: ALSA: Add debug module option

Add debug module option to snd core.
This controls the debug print level.  When CONFIG_SND_DEBUG_VERBOSE
is set, you can suppress the debug messages by giving or changing this
parameter to a lower value.  debug=0 means no debug messsages.
As default, it's set to the verbose level 2.

Since this option can be changed dynamically via sysfs file, you can
suppress the verbose debug messages on the fly, which wasn't possible
before.
