In many SoC implementations there are hardware registers can be read or
write only.  This extends the debugfs to enforce the file permissions for
these types of registers by providing a set of fops which are read or
write only.  This assumes that the kernel developer knows more about the
hardware than the user (even root users) -- which is normally true.
