DRM range manager selftest run time

Hi Chris, Dave,

Recently, I started seeing ca. 2 minute delays during boot-up on Renesas
R-Car Gen2 boards.

It turned out the DRM range manager selftests started taking quite some time.
With debug output, I get:

[ 2.310472] drm_mm: Testing DRM range manger (struct drm_mm), with
random_seed=0x637f8ba8 max_iterations=8192 max_prime=128
[ 2.321625] drm_mm: drm: Running sanitycheck

[ 107.318608] drm_mm: drm: Running color_evict_range
[ 110.485926] drm_mm: run_selftests: Completed

Perhaps some tests can be simplified, to reduce run time?

Alternatviely, the pr_debug() calls in drivers/gpu/drm/selftests/drm_selftest.c
could be turned into pr_info() calls (cfr. the output above), to give a cue?

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,

Geert
