Hi Greg

Is there any reason why this shouldn't be buildable as module? I saw no
apparent reason and added "|| defined(MODULE)" to debugfs.h and made the
Kconfig option tristate. This allowed it to be built as a working module
(yay, i didn't have to restart to try it out!).

Also I saw there was no debugfs_create_u64() for us on 64bit machines ;)


Thanks
