Sorry, actually I was unsure, don't know which interface would be most 
appropriate here.
Thought if CONFIG_DEBUG_FS is defined, then relay backed debugfs file 
might be the most preferred interface, in which case device file 
interface may not be required.

If device file interface is most suitable, then may not have a relay 
backed debugfs interface.

Please suggest.

Best regards
