[PATCH 2/2] ath9k: remove permissions from debugfs files

From: Jiri Slaby
Date: Sun Jun 28 2009 - 17:26:04 EST


Don't allow users to open debugfs files, because it can cause oopses.

When a user opens some file, driver unlinks it and frees the
corresponding structure, we will dereference freed memory.
