Subject: [PATCH v2] Fix debugfs_create_file's error checking method for arm/mach-ns9xxx

debugfs_create_file() returns NULL if an error occurs, returns -ENODEV
when debugfs is not enabled in the kernel.

Comparing to PATCH v1, because clk_debugfs_init is included in
"#if defined CONFIG_DEBUG_FS", we only need to check NULL return.
