Re: [PATCH 07/11] staging: lustre: fold lprocfs_call_handler functionality into lnet_debugfs_*

[James Simmons]

> The calling convention for ->proc_handler is rather clumsy,
> as a comment in fs/procfs/proc_sysctl.c confirms.
> lustre has copied this convention to lnet_debugfs_{read,write},
> and then provided a wrapper for handlers - lprocfs_call_handler -
> to work around the clumsiness.
> 
> It is cleaner to just fold the functionality of lprocfs_call_handler()
> into lnet_debugfs_* and let them call the final handler directly.
> 
> If these files were ever moved to /proc/sys (which seems unlikely) the
> handling in fs/procfs/proc_sysctl.c would need to be fixed to, but
> that would not be a bad thing.
> 
> So modify all the functions that did use the wrapper to not need it
> now that a more sane calling convention is available.
