Is "debugfs" the right place for this? I do wonder if that can be
dropped/disabled via some obscure kernel config?

Also "debugX" doesn't sound like the proper place for a feature flag
of the kernel. I just did a quick check on my system and I do see:

$ ls /sys/fs/ext4/features
batched_discard  casefold  encryption  fast_commit  lazy_itable_init
meta_bg_resize  metadata_csum_seed  test_dummy_encryption_v2  verity

Perhaps we need something similar for fs/ceph?

The primary use for this (v2 syntax entry) is for catching bugs in v2
mount syntax implementation which sounds more like a form of
"debugging". Sysfs represents the whole device model as seen from the
kernel.

And, sysfs is optional too (CONFIG_SYSFS).

So, Jeff in another thread suggested that we make these debugfs
entries generic (client_features). In that case, I'm ok with having
these in sysfs.

I think debugfs is fine for this. This is mainly for teuthology, and in
that case we'll have debugfs available.

One of the reasons to use debugfs here is that stuff in there is
specifically _not_ considered part of the kernel's ABI, so we can more
easily make changes to it in the future w/o worrying as much about
backward compatibility.
