Wait, step back a second.  Why all of this work for a debugfs file that
no one uses?  In wilc_debugfs.c there seems to only provide a single
debugfs file to read and write a value that no one uses anywhere.

So why not a simple patch to just delete the wilc_debugfs.c file
entirely?  Who even uses this debugfs file?  And if they do, what is it
for?  What am I missing about how this is used?

thanks,

greg k-h
