I don't think this is the same situation as most of our
other chicken and egg situations. This is a very generic
addition to debugfs (i.e. someone anyone can use, not just
zcache). Especially as more people use debugfs or convert
some of their sysfs to debufs. In all honesty, I'm surprised
it hasn't been added sooner.
