Subject: [PATCH 0/4] ARM: cleanup debugfs usage

When calling debugfs code, there is no need to ever check the return
value of the call, as no logic should ever change if a call works
properly or not.  Fix up a bunch of x86-specific code to not care about
the results of debugfs

Greg Kroah-Hartman (4):
  arm64: dump: no need to check return value of debugfs_create functions
  arm: dump: no need to check return value of debugfs_create functions
  arm: omap1: no need to check return value of debugfs_create functions
  arm: omap2: no need to check return value of debugfs_create functions
