Lucas De Marchi bdea9e692d drm/xe: Fix and re-enable xe_print_blob_ascii85()
commit a9ab6591b4 upstream.

Commit 70fb86a85d ("drm/xe: Revert some changes that break a mesa
debug tool") partially reverted some changes to workaround breakage
caused to mesa tools. However, in doing so it also broke fetching the
GuC log via debugfs since xe_print_blob_ascii85() simply bails out.

The fix is to avoid the extra newlines: the devcoredump interface is
line-oriented and adding random newlines in the middle breaks it. If a
tool is able to parse it by looking at the data and checking for chars
that are out of the ascii85 space, it can still do so. A format change
that breaks the line-oriented output on devcoredump however needs better
coordination with existing tools.

v2: Add suffix description comment
v3: Reword explanation of xe_print_blob_ascii85() calling drm_puts()
    in a loop
