We've been consolidating these sysfs, tracefs, debugfs, hugetlbfs, etc
in tools/lib/fs/, where we have things like:

[acme@...co perf]$ grep "int sysfs__" tools/lib/api/fs/fs.c 
static int sysfs__read_ull_base(const char *entry,
int sysfs__read_xll(const char *entry, unsigned long long *value)
int sysfs__read_ull(const char *entry, unsigned long long *value)
int sysfs__read_int(const char *entry, int *value)
int sysfs__read_str(const char *entry, char **buf, size_t *sizep)
int sysfs__read_bool(const char *entry, bool *value)
int sysfs__write_int(const char *entry, int value)
[acme@...co perf]$ grep "int debugfs__" tools/lib/api/fs/fs.c 
[acme@...co perf]$ grep "int sysctl__" tools/lib/api/fs/fs.c 
int sysctl__read_int(const char *sysctl, int *value)
[acme@...co perf]$

Please take a look at tools/lib/api/fs/fs.h it already has the functions
to find the mount points, etc, so adding those there since you're
touchign this area now seems best.
