I think sashiko is onto something here with the memleak and the
entirety of the priv thing should go, which is fairly easy to do.
We don't reuse the state anymore anyways.

I'll then just pass the connector as the priv, which will be valid
for the lifetime of the debugfs entry. This means there's no cleanup.
