Subject: [PATCH v1 1/1] swiotlb: Omit total_used and used_hiwater if !CONFIG_DEBUG_FS

From: Petr Tesarik <petr.tesarik.ext@...wei.com>

The tracking of used_hiwater adds an atomic operation to the hot
path. This is acceptable only when debugging the kernel. To make
sure that the fields can never be used by mistake, do not even
include them in struct io_tlb_mem if CONFIG_DEBUG_FS is not set.

The build fails after doing that. To fix it, it is necessary to
remove all code specific to debugfs and instead provide a stub
implementation of swiotlb_create_debugfs_files(). As a bonus, this
change allows to remove one __maybe_unused attribute.
