Subject: [PATCH] drivers: regulator: core: remove return value check of `regulator_init`

Smatch complains that:
regulator_init() warn: 'debugfs_root' is an error pointer or valid

According to the documentation of the debugfs_create_dir() function,
there is no need to check the return value of this function.
Just delete the dead code.

Fixes: 247514344492 ("regulator: Remove ifdefs for debugfs code")
