It looks like this is introducing a regression[1]. Basically, simply
running df shows an error:
df: `/sys/kernel/debug': Function not implemented
Doing 'strace df' shows the following:
statfs64("/sys/kernel/debug", 84, 0xbfddc6bc) = -1 ENOSYS (Function not implemented)
A quick test shows that adding '.statfs = simple_statfs' in the
debugfs_super_operations struct fixes the problem, but I'm not sure
that's the right thing to do.
