I really helps with review if I am told *why* something is happening.

I can guess, but being told means I'm less concerned that I might have
missed something.

I can see that "mountpoint" is an inappropriate name, though I'm not
entired sure that "super" is a better now.  Surely this code is
registering an filesystem (instance) with debugfs.... maybe a "super" is
exactly a "filesystem instance"....

Why is ll_debugfs better than ldebugfs?  More typing doesn't usually
thrill me.


I don't really care about this particular change - it seems innocuous.
I do really care about good change logs.

Thanks,
NeilBrown
