[PATCH 1/2] debugfs: improve DEFINE_DEBUGFS_ATTRIBUTE for !CONFIG_DEBUGFS_FS

From: Arnd Bergmann
Date: Mon Oct 10 2016 - 07:13:58 EST


The slp_s0_residency_usec debugfs file currently uses
DEFINE_DEBUGFS_ATTRIBUTE(), but that macro cannot really be used to
define files outside of the debugfs code, as it has no reference to
the get/set functions if CONFIG_DEBUGFS_FS is not defined:

drivers/platform/x86/intel_pmc_core.c:80:12: error: âpmc_core_dev_state_getâ defined but not used [-Werror=unused-function]

This fixes the macro to always contain the reference, and instead rely
on the stubbed-out debugfs_create_file to not actually refer to
its arguments so the compiler can still drop the reference.
This works because the attribute definition is always 'static',
and the dead-code removal silently drops all static symbols
that are not used.

Fixes: c64688081490 ("debugfs: add support for self-protecting attribute file fops")
Fixes: df2294fb6428 ("intel_pmc_core: Convert to DEFINE_DEBUGFS_ATTRIBUTE")
