Subject: [PATCH v4 0/7] ref_tracker: add ability to register a debugfs file
 for a ref_tracker_dir

This version should be pretty close to merge-ready. The only real
difference is the use of NAME_MAX as the field width for on-stack
sprintf buffers.

I left the Reviewed-bys intact. Let me know if that's an issue and
we can drop them.

Changes in v4:
- Drop patch to widen ref_tracker_dir_.name, use NAME_MAX+1 (256) instead since this only affects dentry name
- Link to v3: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250417-reftrack-dbgfs-v3-0-c3159428c8fb@kernel.org

Changes in v3:
- don't overwrite dir->name in ref_tracker_dir_debugfs
- define REF_TRACKER_NAMESZ and use it when setting name
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250415-reftrack-dbgfs-v2-0-b18c4abd122f@kernel.org

Changes in v2:
- Add patch to do %pK -> %p conversion in ref_tracker.c
- Pass in output function to pr_ostream() instead of if statement
- Widen ref_tracker_dir.name to 64 bytes to accomodate unique names
- Eliminate error handling with debugfs manipulation
- Incorporate pointer value into netdev name
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250414-reftrack-dbgfs-v1-0-f03585832203@kernel.org
