so this pattern 'try tracefs, if that does not work try debugfs'
is all over the patch.. how about we add new new 'virtual' fs to
encapsulate that, like:

  with followign interface:
    bool tpfs_configured(void);
    const char *tpfs_find_mountpoint(void);
    int tpfs_valid_mountpoint(const char *debugfs);
    char *tpfs_mount(const char *mountpoint);
    extern char tpfs_mountpoint[];

It does not neceserily needs to reside in tools/lib/api/fs/tpfs.[ch],
but I believe we need some form of encapsulation for this.
