[PATCH] debugfs: remove return value of debugfs_create_regset32()

[PATCH] debugfs: remove return value of debugfs_create_regset32()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

No one checks the return value of debugfs_create_regset32(), as it's not
needed, so make the return value void, so that no one tries to do so in
the future.
