I don't think debugfs_t is a good example.  Looking at the file
contexts, I don't see why it needs to be a mount point.  I also don't
think that these pseudo filesystems should be file types either since
they aren't regular files.  It seems like the best choice would be to
use fs_getattr_all_dirs(collectd_t).
