Currently function debugfs_create_dir() creates a new
directory in the debugfs (usually mounted /sys/kernel/debug)
with permission rwxr-xr-x. This is hard coded.
Change this to use the parent directory permission.
Fixes: edac65eaf8d5c ("debugfs: take mode-dependent parts of debugfs_get_inode() into callers")

This looks ok, but is it going to change the permissions of existing
stuff in ways that might breaks things, right?
Have you done a before/after comparison?

Right, but debugfs is usually mounted on /sys/kernel/debug with
permissions rwx to root owner. It can be changed after the mount, of course.
Unless this is done, the directory permissions for /sys/kernel/debug
will stop any descend regardless of the subdirectory permissions.

I have tested this patch on my Linux 4.17.0rc2 kernel on s390.
That worked well, I have not tested other systems.

What do you mean by "worked well"? What were the full tree differences
between before and after? You should be able to get this by using:
tree -dp /sys/kernel/debug/
and then doing a diff on the two files.

Ok, this is the tree output
Before the patch:

"diff -u" is your friend, this isn't the 1990's anymore :)

Also, always run checkpatch.pl on your patches before a grumpy
maintainer tells you to run checkpatch.pl...
