I was thinking more like:

ID      PRI     LINK_VLD        MODE    DWRR
0       0       1               dwrr    0
1       0       0               sp      0
...


but the exact format is up to you.

I hope you don't mean end user when you say _user_.  This is debugfs,
it's intended for developers to debug issues and system dump to gather 
info at customer site.

Thanks. Not that much info per entry, as expected. Single file should
do nicely.
