debugfs: introduce a public file_operations accessor
This patch introduces an accessor which can be used by the users of debugfs (drivers, fs, ...) to get the original file_operations struct. It also removes the REAL_FOPS_DEREF macro in file.c and converts the code to use the public version. Previously, REAL_FOPS_DEREF was only available within the file.c of debugfs. But having a public getter available for debugfs users is important as some drivers (carl9170 and b43) use the pointer of the original file_operations in conjunction with container_of() within their debugfs implementations.
