Subject: [ 005/135] iwlwifi: fix flow handler debug code

3.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@...el.com>

commit 94543a8d4fb302817014981489f15cb3b92ec3c2 upstream.

iwl_dbgfs_fh_reg_read() can cause crashes and/or
BUG_ON in slub because the ifdefs are wrong, the
code in iwl_dump_fh() should use DEBUGFS, not
DEBUG to protect the buffer writing code.

Also, while at it, clean up the arguments to the
function, some code and make it generally safer.
