Since the debugfs is mostly only used by root, make the default mount
mode 0700. Most system owners do not need a more permissive value,
but they can choose to weaken the restrictions via their fstab.Signed-off-by: Kees Cook

Cautious admins may want to restrict access to debugfs. Currently a
manual chown/chmod e.g. in an init script is needed to achieve that.
Distributions that want to make the mount options configurable need
to add extra config files. By allowing to set the root inode's uid,
gid and mode via mount options no such hacks are needed anymore.
Instead configuration becomes straight forward via fstab.Signed-off-by: Ludwig Nussel

Some debugfs file I deal with are mostly blocks of registers,
i.e. lines of the form " = 0x". Some files are only
registers, some include registers blocks among other material. This
patch introduces data structures and functions to deal with both
cases. I expect more users of this over time.Signed-off-by: Alessandro Rubini

This is an updated document covering the internal API for the debugfs
