We do not promise any ABI compatibility for debugfs for ivpu,
we can add, remove or modify at any time. Hence make no sense to add
documentation files to Documentation/ABI/ for us.

Is not synced. We can wait before Christian changes get in, what
hopefully will happen soon. But if not, ivpu debugfs can be modified
along with the changes. I can assist with that.
