Debugfs support is optional with Netronome. If concerned about security,
then it should be disabled.

The WIIL6210 driver debugfs has other worse address leaks.
The whole debugfs support in this driver should be made optional
(or removed).

The VLSI /oroc interface likewise should just be removed (or made
optional). Most distributions do not build IRDA anymore anyway.
