The documentation for struct drm_minor already states this, but that's not always that easy to find. Also due to historical reasons we still have the minor-centric interfaces (like drm_debugfs_create_files), but since this is now getting fixed we can put a few more pointers in place as to how this should be done ideally. Note that debugfs isn't there yet for all cases (debugfs files on kms objects like crtc/connector aren't supported, neither debugfs files with full fops), so the debugfs side of this is still rather aspirational and more for new users than converting everything existing. todo.rst covers the additional work needed already. Motivated by some discussion with Rodrigo on irc about how drm/xe should lay out its sysfs interfaces. v2: Make the debugfs situation clearer in the commit message, but don't elaborate more in the actual kerneldoc to avoid distracting from the main message around sysfs (Jani) Also fix some typos.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
