Can't we remove the other calls to debugfs_mount() ? I see 3 more calls in alfred ...
Yes, the other calls within this binary are probably failing, due to reduced capabilities. I can remove them in a v3 patch.

Are you still planning on sending a fixed patchset? :)
Hi Simon
I have a fixed up version. But at the moment, it is not clear what is happening with the kernel patches. Maybe we need to change the debugfs API in order to make it easier to build with older kernels?
