This interface is only intended for testing and validation, there are
ioctls on the debugfs file that can be accessed by userspace but there
isn't any exported kernel header with this info. The tester should know
and add a internal header to be able to access it. We want to prevent
people from misusing this feature by not advertising it nor providing
documentation.

There will be, though, kselftest for this interface, that I send out
once SW_SYNC is de-staged.
