UPSTREAM: printk: collect printk stuff into <linux/printk.h> with loglevel support

When we import code from Linux, with regular re-sync planned, we want
to use printk() and pr_*(). U-Boot does not support them in a clean
way. So, people end up with local macros, or compat headers here and
there, then we occasionally see build errors of definition conflicts.

We have include/linux/compat.h, but putting all sorts of unrelated
things into a single header is just a temporal workaround. Hence this
patch, to find the best home for all printk variants. If you want to
use printk() and friends, please include <linux/printk.h>. This header
is self-contained, and pulls in only a few headers.

When I was testing this clean-up, I noticed the image size exceeded
its platform limit on some boards. This is because all pr_*() that
were previously defined as no-op in include/linux/mtd/mtd.h (unless
CONFIG_MTD_DEBUG is set), are now enabled.

To make such boards happy, this commit also implements CONFIG_LOGLEVEL.
The concept is similar to the kernel parameter "loglevel". (Actually,
the Kconfig help message was taken from kernel-paremeter.txt of Linux)
Messages with a loglevel smaller than console loglevel will be printed.

The difference is the loglevel is build-time determined. To save the
image size, lower priority pr_*() are compiled out. I set the default
of CONFIG_LOGLEVEL to 6, i.e. pr_notice and higher priority messages
are compiled in.

I adjusted CONFIG_LOGLEVEL to avoid build error for some boards.
