Geert reported that my previous short fops debugfs changes
broke m68k, because it only has mandatory alignement of two,
so we can't stash the "is it short" information into the
pointer (as we already did with the "is it real" bit.)
Instead, exploit the fact that debugfs_file_get() called on
an already open file will already find that the fsdata is
no longer the real fops but rather the allocated data that
already distinguishes full/short ops, so only open() needs
to be able to distinguish. We can achieve that by using two
different open functions.
Unfortunately this requires another set of full file ops,
increasing the size by 536 bytes (x86-64), but that's still
a reasonable trade-off given that only converting some of
the wireless stack gained over 28k. This brings the total
cost of this to around 1k, for wins of 28k (all x86-64).

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 reStructuredText 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.
