Hrm. telem_apl_debugfs_conf is passed to the TELEM_DEBUGFS_CPU macro as the
second argument "data":

#define TELEM_DEBUGFS_CPU(model, data) \
	{ X86_VENDOR_INTEL, 6, model, X86_FEATURE_ANY, (unsigned long)&data}

And the address is taken, and later assigned to the debugfs_conf pointer.

The usage still seems OK, but did I misunderstand the conditions?
