I would have preferred debugfs but it didn't support reading and writing of binary blobs (at least according to the docs I read). The feature being ported over sent C structs back and forth to/from user space (used to be ioctl based) and procfs worked pretty well doing that. But that's been completely ripped out now and we do plan to use debugfs as the communication mechanism.
