If this is *only* for tests, then for sure this should be in debugfs?

Why do you need separate functions for these two?

If they are only used from one place (which I suspect) then just
put the code at that site.

Similar here. Cannot this be brought into the only call site?

Make it optional and just don't define it.

Dito.

(Already remarked this at the last patch.)
