Uh that doesn't work if you work around core restrictions with your
own debugfs paths. Maybe you can do fun like this in your dkms, but
not in upstream. Like if this was specifically created to work around
CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM (and it sounds like that) then I think this
should never have landed in upstream to begin with.
