I'm not sure this is the same thing, though, as it's not a drvier
to user debug message.

Ye, can you please explain better what this command does? You are
sending a LJCA_DIAG_SET_TRACE_LEVEL command to the device with a
parameter "3" which has a meaining only for you :)

What is ugly here is the parsing of "dfu" and "debug", I would
just make different boolean files, something like:

 echo 1 > ljca_dfu
 echo 0 > ljca_dfu

and

 echo N > ljca_trace_level

with a proper documentation of the trace levels.

The show counterparast can provide a feedback on how the
interfaces are set rather than providing some help message, which
is not what sysfs files are meant for.

Would this work?
