For now, can you keep this within the drivers/staging/batman/ directory,
just so everything is nice and self-contained?  When it moves to the
main part of the kernel tree, then it can move into the
Documentation/ABI/testing/ directory, ok?

Isn't the vis_data file in debugfs now?  If so, shouldn't this file move
there as well?  Or at least don't point to a file that doesn't exist in
sysfs :)
