debugfs should only used for debugging and not to create a backdoor API.
What you are looking for is a more efficient API than the hwmon API
to access sensor data. There is an available API to do that: iio.
You have two options: Register the driver with iio directly, or better
implement a generic hwmon->iio bridge in the hwmon core. I have wanted
to do the latter forever, but never got around to impementing it.
