On the contrary, they do a lot!  Try building with CONFIG_DEBUG_FS
disabled and see what happens with your patch applied (hint, it breaks
the build badly...)

To be fair, the "empty" functions should be moved to the .h file, not
the .c file, so if you want to do that, it would make more sense
overall.
