Well, we could split this in two files, one (called rc80211_pid_debugfs.c e.g.) which would contain the debugfs-related implementation, while the event calls would go in rc80211_pid.c. That way inclusion sounds more feasible, even if overkill maybe. > The script that feeds the data into gnuplot is attached.
