They are simple statistics. But they does not fit into any existing
interface. This is about EMAD packets. They are not per-netdevice, but
per-pcidevice. So I cannot put them into ethtool.

I see no other iface to expose this other than debugfs. Please suggest
some other way, I don't see it :/

Thanks.

I think that is the primary purpose of this iface, To put arbitrary
debugging garbage there. Am I missing something?
