Huh, looking at that Fixes commit, it says:

"One can track which daemon opens it via "lsof
/path/to/debugfs/ras/daemon_active"."

# lsof /sys/kernel/debug/ras/daemon_active
COMMAND   PID USER   FD   TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
tail    13339 root    3r   REG    0,6        0   27 /sys/kernel/debug/ras/daemon_active

So it works as advertized I'd say.

Now, if you want to cat that file, that's a different story.
