This patchset adds debugfs support for capturing driver state for particular times when the HW has malfunctioned (and we must reset the HW). Every controller HW version has had bugs. These bugs have been very painful to debug. One useful tool to debug these is being able to capture and export HW registers and driver control structures at point of failure. This feature has been maintained out-of-tree for some time, so add it now.
