if the const table is only used by this function, why not do the trivial thing
and relocate it to be inside this #ifdef, or even to be within the function
itself?

CONFIG_DEBUG_FS != CONFIG_MAC80211_DEBUGFS, is that intentional?

so using this you don't get a warning about all those static functions and
tables being unused when the feature is disabled? that's pretty cool.
is that because the compiler sees them instead of the preprocessor stripping
them out?

and yes it is trivial, but we now waste this memory when the feature is not
enabled
