I was taking a look at the debugfs_create_dir() code, and I saw it can
return ERR_PTR(), so ideally we should check for errors with IS_ERR() / PTR_ERR().

Also from the docs:

* <snip> If an error occurs, ERR_PTR(-ERROR) will be
* returned.
*
* If debugfs is not enabled in the kernel, the value -%ENODEV will be
* returned.

nit: I would change the name of the commit just to make it clear what it
does.
Example: Remove useless error check from debugfs_create_dir()

Thanks,
Helen
