All of Qualcomm's proprietary Android boot-loaders capture boot time
stats, like the time when the bootloader started execution and at what
point the bootloader handed over control to the kernel etc. in the IMEM
region. This information is captured in a specific format by this driver
by mapping a structure to the IMEM memory region and then accessing the
members of the structure to show the information within debugfs file.
This information is useful in verifying if the existing boot KPIs have
regressed or not. The information is shown in milliseconds, a sample
log from sm8450(waipio) device is as follows:-

/sys/kernel/debug/146aa6b0.boot_stats # cat abl_time
17898 ms
/sys/kernel/debug/146aa6b0.boot_stats # cat pre_abl_time
2879 ms

The Module Power Manager(MPM) sleep counter starts ticking at the PBL
stage and the timestamp generated by the sleep counter is logged by
the Qualcomm proprietary bootloader(ABL) at two points-> First when it
starts execution which is logged here as "pre_abl_time" and the second
when it is about to load the kernel logged as "abl_time". Documentation
details are also added in Documentation/ABI/testing/debugfs-driver-bootstat

I would avoid global variables where possible, and allocate them dynamically.

In this case you could do that in probe and pass it(boot_stats) as argument to debugfs_create_file() and also set dbg_dir as dev_set_drvdata to be able to use it in remove.

consider using remove_new as its suggested that new drivers implement .remove_new as it returns void.
