This does not look correct to me. At the very least you need to now
document your misc device interface. Why are you removing the choice
whether to enable this or not? The module parameter does also not
sound like a good idea at all.

I'm really not sure about this. This is just a poor man's debugfs that
removes any choice of enabling it. Since clearly debugging related
information is what you are after here, debugfs really should be
enough for you.
