Subject: [PATCH v3 6/8] debugfs: purge obsolete SRCU based removal protection

Purge the SRCU based file removal race protection in favour of the new,
refcount based debugfs_file_get()/debugfs_file_put() API.

Fixes: 49d200deaa68 ("debugfs: prevent access to removed files' private
                      data")
Signed-off-by: Nicolai Stange <nicstange@...il.com>
