Thanks for pointing me to the example. I moved some of my former sysfs
interfaces to debugfs. Especially those which were printing out more
than one item. I guess you don't like those in sysfs anyways.

I re-posted our driver in "[PATCH] Generic WorkQueue Engine (GenWQE)
device driver (v4)" and addressed Ryans comments too.

Some of the module parameters I got rid of, some others I turned into
debugfs interfaces. Again others I replaced by constants with proven
default values. For those I kept, I added comments why I want them as
parameters still.

Regards

Frank
