Sorry, I should have worded that better.
I meant moving ptdump_register into ptdump_debugfs.c, perhaps renamed to make it
clear it's debugfs-specific.
We could instead update existing users to call ptdump_debugfs_create()
directly, and have that call ptdump_initialize(), which could itself become a
staic inline in a header.
Thanks,
Mark.
