An alternative is to dump the information to the system log rather than 
putting it in the /proc filesystem.  But that would be less flexible, less 
reliable, and harder to use.

It would be nice to have an officially condoned place for debug-file dumps
of internal data structures.  Since sysfs can't do it, procfs will have to
serve.
