This patch set brings in a common debugfs base directory i.e. /sys/kernel/debugfs/wwan/ in WWAN Subsystem for a WWAN device instance. So that it avoids driver polluting debugfs root with unrelated directories & possible name collusion. Having a common debugfs base directory for WWAN drivers eases user to match control devices with debugfs entries. WWAN Subsystem creates dentry (/sys/kernel/debugfs/wwan) on module load & removes dentry on module unload. When driver registers a new wwan device, dentry (wwanX) is created for WWAN device instance & on driver unregister dentry is removed. New API is introduced to return the wwan device instance dentry so that driver can create debugfs entries under it.

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 Restructured Text 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.
