Heh, ok, so the existing code is working around that choice right now,
but that wasn't a good choice, so I'll ignore it :)

Ok, will do.

There already is debugfs support in the code for crtc/connectors, these
files are "hanging" off of those locations already. I'll keep that, but
indent it one more directory so that there's no namespace collisions.

For "simple" things like single variables, yes, there is.
For more "free-form" text, where you want to use a seq file interface,
this seems to be the "simplest" boiler-plate to create. Actually should
be pretty simple to create a macro for this, as it's pretty trivial (the
drm core already wraps this on its own, so it can be done...)
I'll do that too.

Ah, good, I missed that, should make this code simpler then, thanks!

They did. I was trying to be nice and keep things in their own
directory so I could clean it up. But I guess we want the drm core to
be cleaning things up, I forgot about drm_debugfs_remove_files() being
the main goal to get rid of here :)

Ok, will do.

Wonderful, will do.
thanks for the review.
