Subject: [PATCH net v2] net: lan966x: remove debugfs directory in probe() error path

A debugfs directory entry is create early during probe(). This entry is
not removed on error path leading to some "already present" issues in
case of EPROBE_DEFER.

Create this entry later in the probe() code to avoid the need to change
many 'return' in 'goto' and add the removal in the already present error
path.

This patch was previously sent as part of a bigger series:
  https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240430083730.134918-9-herve.codina@bootlin.com/
As it is a simple fix, this v2 is the patch extracted from the series
and sent alone to net.
