I don't think this check makes much sense here.

This also looks rather strange.  I'd much rather create move the
directory creation of out swiotlb_create_debugfs.  E.g. something like:

static void swiotlb_create_debugfs_file(struct io_tlb_mem *mem)
{
	debugfs_create_ulong("io_tlb_nslabs", 0400, mem->debugfs, &mem->nslabs);
	debugfs_create_ulong("io_tlb_used", 0400, mem->debugfs, &mem->used);
}

static int __init swiotlb_init_debugfs(void)
{
	debugfs_dir = debugfs_create_dir("swiotlb", NULL);
	if (io_tlb_default_mem) {
		io_tlb_default_mem->debugfs = debugfs_dir;
		swiotlb_create_debugfs_files(io_tlb_default_mem);
	}
	return 0;
}
late_initcall(swiotlb_init_debugfs);

...

static int rmem_swiotlb_device_init(struct reserved_mem *rmem,
                                    struct device *dev)
{
	...
		mem->debugfs = debugfs_create_dir(rmem->name, debugfs_dir);
		swiotlb_create_debugfs_files(mem->debugfs);

			
}
