Introduces the concept of a `ScopedDir`, which allows for the creation of debugfs directories and files that are tied to the lifetime of a particular data structure. This ensures that debugfs entries do not outlive the data they refer to. The new `Dir::scope` method creates a new directory that is owned by a `Scope` handle. All files and subdirectories created within this scope are automatically cleaned up when the `Scope` is dropped.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
