Subject: [PATCH 4.19 08/58] mvpp2: no need to check return value of debugfs_create functions

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org>

[ Upstream commit e6882aa623f6fe0d80fa82ebf3ee78c353bffbe1 ]

When calling debugfs functions, there is no need to ever check the
return value.  The function can work or not, but the code logic should
never do something different based on this.
