I see yes, sadly we'd have to cast to (unsigned long *) to make that
work as atomic_long counters are long long int:

   debugfs_create_ulong("total_mod_size",
        0400, mod_debugfs_root,
-        &total_mod_size.counter);
+        (unsigned long *)&total_mod_size.counter);

That's:

unsigned long min bits 32
long long     min bits 64

But since we'd be doing our accounting in atomic_long and just use
debugfs for prints I think that's fine. Just a bit ugly.
