You didn't put a big enough warning here, like I asked last time :(

Again, no, never test a return value from a debugfs call. You do not
care, you should do the same exact thing if it is enabled or disabled or
somehow failing. Just keep moving on.

Why are you wrapping a debugfs call? Why not just export
iommu_debugfs_dir instead?
