Hi Wei Chen,

* I'm not sure if a fixes tag is appropriate for this.
  But if so, perhaps it should be:

  Fixes: 610247f46feb ("rtlwifi: Improve debugging by using debugfs")

* I think the preferred subject prefix may be                                     'rtlwifi: ' (without the leading 'wireless: ').

* This seems to be v2 of this patch, which would be best noted in
  the subject '[PATCH v2]'.               

The above notwithstanding, the code changes look correct to me.
