dynamic_debug: allow to work if debugfs is disabled
With the realization that having debugfs enabled on "production" systems is generally not a good idea, debugfs is being disabled from more and more platforms over time. However, the functionality of dynamic debugging still is needed at times, and since it relies on debugfs for its user api, having debugfs disabled also forces dynamic debug to be disabled. To get around this, also create the "control" file for dynamic_debug in procfs. This allows people turn on debugging as needed at runtime for individual driverfs and subsystems.
