+ * debugfs_create_file_size - create a file in the debugfs filesystem
+ * @name: a pointer to a string containing the name of the file to create.
+ * @mode: the permission that the file should have.
+ * @parent: a pointer to the parent dentry for this file. This should be a
+ * directory dentry if set. If this parameter is NULL, then the
+ * file will be created in the root of the debugfs filesystem.
+ * @data: a pointer to something that the caller will want to get to later
+ * on. The inode.i_private pointer will point to this value on
+ * the open() call.
+ * @fops: a pointer to a struct file_operations that should be used for
+ * this file.
+ * @file_size: initial file size
+ *
+ * This is the basic "create a file" function for debugfs. It allows for a
+ * wide range of flexibility in creating a file, or a directory (if you want
+ * to create a directory, the debugfs_create_dir() function is
+ * recommended to be used instead.)
+ *
+ * This function will return a pointer to a dentry if it succeeds. This
+ * pointer must be passed to the debugfs_remove() function when the file is
+ * to be removed (no automatic cleanup happens if your module is unloaded,
+ * you are responsible here.) If an error occurs, %NULL will be returned.
+ *
+ * If debugfs is not enabled in the kernel, the value -%ENODEV will be
+ * returned.
