Using debugfs. More convenient than module options
in some cases.

There are already sysfs files for module parameters which seems to work
just fine for this case:
# echo 0xffffffff > /sys/module/ath10k_core/parameters/debug_mask
Ok, but it is still nice to have the printout info of what log levels
means. Otherwise, you have to go look at firmware source to even know how
to enable the proper flags. And as these flags are internal and might change,
we could change the printout text to match the specific kernel that is running.
The debug log levels are documented in the wiki:
https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/drivers/ath10k/debug#debug_log_messages
And they are not supposed to change, there should be only additions.
Ahh, I remember the best part of this patch. It pre-positions for another patch
that makes the debug-mask per NIC instance instead of per driver.
This can be quite useful for testing with multiple radios, maybe only one of
which you want to see logging for.
And regardless of what is in a wiki somewhere, having a debugfs file to cat out is
more user friendly.
Thanks,
Ben
