debugfs, coccinelle: check for obsolete DEFINE_SIMPLE_ATTRIBUTE() usage

Browse Source 
In order to protect against file removal races, debugfs files created via
debugfs_create_file() now get wrapped by a struct file_operations at their
opening.

If the original struct file_operations are known to be safe against removal
races by themselves already, the proxy creation may be bypassed by creating
the files through debugfs_create_file_unsafe().

In order to help debugfs users who use the common
  DEFINE_SIMPLE_ATTRIBUTE() + debugfs_create_file()
idiom to transition to removal safe struct file_operations, the helper
macro DEFINE_DEBUGFS_ATTRIBUTE() has been introduced.

Thus, the preferred strategy is to use
  DEFINE_DEBUGFS_ATTRIBUTE() + debugfs_create_file_unsafe()
now.

Introduce a Coccinelle script that searches for
DEFINE_SIMPLE_ATTRIBUTE()-defined struct file_operations handed into
debugfs_create_file(). Suggest to turn these usages into the
  DEFINE_DEBUGFS_ATTRIBUTE() + debugfs_create_file_unsafe()
pattern.
