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.

I think you should still abort if the directory fails to be created.
If it's NULL, all later file creation will be attempted at root debugfs.
Not only will they pollute the filesystem, but since they are not
attached to the directory we remove on cleanup, they'll leak.
Also, since failure is no longer reported, it may be a good idea to
log that failure.

Why?

debugfs_create_dir() can not return NULL.

That can not happen, if the parent directory is an error pointer, the
file will just not be created.

Why? To where? For what? debugfs should never matter if it works or
not as no no-debugging userspace code should ever depend on it, and the
kernel should not ever "fail" anything if it is not working properly.

why is it bad if we handle errors from debugfs?
At least a nice log message a la "sorry, no ubifs debuging for you"
would be nice to have.
Thanks,

Because there is no need to? If debugfs fails, there is nothing that a
user can do about it :)

I think the lack of a debugfs file is kind of obvious :)
Anyway, the point is that there is no need to check for return values
from debugfs, and the logic of the non-debugfs code should not do
anything different if debugfs is acting up or not.
thanks,
greg k-h
