Debugfs APIs returns encoded error on failure instead of NULL
and for drm primary/minor debugfs directories, we save the
returned value in the dentry pointer and pass it on to drm
drivers to further create debugfs files/directories. Error
conditions are handled by debugfs APIs, so no need to check
for NULL, as saved dentry pointers will either contain a
valid pointer or an error code.

Also document this for future reference.
