As a user of your driver, how can I know how to enable / disable a
module log?
I know VAL enables / disables them, but I don't know what modules exists
and what values are required.

If this is just for internal debugging and user not need to configure
this one, does it needs to be a config option in configuration file?

I don't have a strong opinion, I think that _INFO is not adding value
unless you have different config options per each level like _VERBOSE,
_INFO, _NOTICE. But if you believe your users will benefit from it, it
is your call.

Clear thanks,

I guess right now:
DEBUG_VAL: enables verbose debug for selected module(s)
DEBUG_INFO: Enables NOTICE and INFO level for ? (all modules?)
ERR level is always enabled

Again it is your call, but I think CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_QEDE_DEBUG can be
used to enable/disable all debugs, and when enabled QEDE_DEBUG_VAL can
select which modules to enable verbose debug ...
