I recently posted a patch exporting some things through /sys/kernel/debug/...
Greg complained that a file for Documentation/ABI/{testing,stable}/* is missing
and I fully agree.
If different userspace apps should make use of this (in above case nobody
than my debug userspace tool will...) and this should be called something like an API,
it should be documented and if something changes, it should
first be marked deprecated, etc.
