[PATCH] debugfs: Reduce <linux/debugfs.h> dependencies
The current <linux/debugfs.h> include file is a little fragile in that
it is not self-contained and hence may cause compile warnings or
errors depending on the files included before it, the kernel config
and the architecture. This patch makes things a little more robust by:
- including <linux/types.h> to get definitions of u32, mode_t, and so on.
- forward declaring struct file_operations.
- including <linux/err.h> when CONFIG_DEBUG_FS is not set
The last change is particularly useful, as a kernel developer is
likely to build with debugfs always enabled and never see the build
breakage cased if debugfs is disabled.
