Subject[PATCH] usb: typec: ucsi: Release debugfs only if it has been allocated
Date
The following NULL pointer exception was found during boot up:

calling ucsi_acpi_platform_driver_init+0x0/0xff0 [ucsi_acpi] @ 394
initcall mac_hid_init+0x0/0xff0 [mac_hid] returned 0 after 5 usecs
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000020
Call Trace:
? ucsi_debugfs_unregister+0x15/0x30 [typec_ucsi]
ucsi_destroy+0x17/0x30 [typec_ucsi]
ucsi_acpi_probe+0x1d5/0x230 [ucsi_acpi]

It is possible that ucsi_acpi_probe() fails to install the notifier,
and calls ucsi_destroy() to release the resource. However at that
moment the debugfs has not been registered yet, thus the NULL pointer
exception is triggered. Add the check for debugfs pointer.

Fixes: Commit df0383ffad64 ("usb: typec: ucsi: Add debugfs for ucsi commands")
