Hm right. Other drivers don't #ifdef out their debugfs file functions
... kinda a bit disappointing that we can't do this in the neatest way
possible.

Greg, has anyone ever suggested to convert the debugfs_create_file
function (and similar things) to macros that don't use any of the
arguments, and then also annotating all the static functions/tables as
__maybe_unused and let the compiler garbage collect everything?
Instead of explicit #ifdef in all the drivers ...
