So this is a bit late, but why don't we pass that drm_debugfs_entry as an
explicit parameter? Or maybe just the struct drm_device, because that and
the void *data is really all there is to pass along. Would give us more
type-safety, which really is the main reason for having drm-specific
debugfs functions.

Either way, on the series: Reviewed-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@xxxxxxxx>
