I still think debugfs is the right *start* for this: you play with them,
see what makes sense and what not, tweak them, etc, and then you cast
them in stone.

Not cast them in stone and see if anyone is even interested. So pls keep
them in debugfs for now - you can always do whatever, later, when it
turns out that those are useful.

Thx.
