Given all this argument over it, I'm mindful to rip out all the debug_ll
code and keep it permanently as an offline patch to prevent further abuse.

It means that people will have to individually write their own accessors
rather than having the utility of it being merged in the kernel, but
I'm sick of trying to stop the feature creap destroying its utility.
