Subject: Re: [EXT4 set 2][PATCH 5/5] cleanups: Export jbd2-debug via debugfs

The jbd2-debug file used to be located in /proc/sys/fs/jbd2-debug, but
create_proc_entry() does not do lookups on file names that are more that one
directory deep.  This causes the entry creation to fail and hence, no proc
file is created.

Instead of fixing this on procfs might as well move the jbd2-debug file to
debugfs which would be the preferred location for this kind of tunable.  The
new location is now /sys/kernel/debug/jbd2/jbd2-debug.
