We do compat work the other way round. The goal is to have our
out-of-tree code as close as possible to linux upstream. Otherwise we
would "get stuck" at the old paradigms.

In that specific case it actually means to change drbd_debugfs.c in a
way that it looks like linux upstream (basically removing the '&') and
provide compat #defines for older kernels.
