No, It's not debug.
It's for syncing and aligning (and validating) the open-source userspace with the kernel cache policy.

As for the name being wrong, I'll change that.

As for the sysfs, would you prefer the following structure:

mocs/size
mocs/control_state
mocs/l3cc_state

for the different tables?

Peter.

No, you've put debug information into sysfs. (Also sysfs is one value per
file.) sysfs does not match your goal of validation. And you exported an internal function (get_mocs...) without giving it a proper name.
