T.J. Mercier ab4c3dcf9a dma-buf: Remove DMA-BUF sysfs stats
Commit bdb8d06dfe ("dmabuf: Add the capability to expose DMA-BUF stats
in sysfs") added dmabuf statistics to sysfs in 2021 under
CONFIG_DMABUF_SYSFS_STATS. After being used in production, performance
problems were discovered leading to its deprecation in 2022 in commit
e0a9f1fe20 ("dma-buf: deprecate DMABUF_SYSFS_STATS"). Some of the
problems with this interface were discussed in my LPC 2025 talk. [1][2]

Android was probably the last user of the interface, which has since
been migrated to use the dmabuf BPF iterator [3] to obtain the same
information more cheaply. As promised in that series, now that the
longterm stable 6.18 kernel has been released let's remove the sysfs
dmabuf statistics from the kernel.
