Use DEFINE_DEBUGFS_ATTRIBUTE rather than DEFINE_SIMPLE_ATTRIBUTE
for debugfs files.

Semantic patch information:
Rationale: DEFINE_SIMPLE_ATTRIBUTE + debugfs_create_file()
imposes some significant overhead as compared to
DEFINE_DEBUGFS_ATTRIBUTE + debugfs_create_file_unsafe().

Sorry this isn't detailed enough for me to actually understand the
pros/cons of this patch.

Perhaps I'm expected to know it, but I don't.

I had a look at what each macro produces and it wasn't obvious to me
what the benefit is.

cheers
