Subject: [PATCH 3.18 151/151] x86: pmc-atom: Assign debugfs node as soon as possible

3.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@...ux.intel.com>

commit 1b43d7125f3b6f7d46e72da64f65f3187a83b66b upstream.

pmc_dbgfs_unregister() will be called when pmc->dbgfs_dir is unconditionally
NULL on error path in pmc_dbgfs_register(). To prevent this we move the
assignment to where is should be.

Fixes: f855911c1f48 (x86/pmc_atom: Expose PMC device state and platform sleep state)
