The point with debugfs would be that we would need to start a
“structure” in the framework that can get easily extended, which obviously
would need more thought, so that a driver can easily expose additional data.

So something along the lines of:
/sys/kernel/debug/spi/<bus>/*
/sys/kernel/debug/spi/<bus>/<device>/*

And with the right api we could make it easily extendable (much more easily
than with sysfs...)

So what I would do I post a patch to expose those “basics” via sysfs and then
a patch to expose the histogram and potentially more via debugfs.
