Good job! Well, we could split this in two files, one (called
rc80211_pid_debugfs.c e.g.) which would contain the debugfs-related
implementation, while the event calls would go in rc80211_pid.c. That way
inclusion sounds more feasible, even if overkill maybe.

I'll make some graphs too in the next few days. ;) Heading to the microwave
