debugfs_lookup() doesn't like it if it is passed an illegal name
pointer, or if the filesystem isn't even initialized yet.  If either of
these happen, it will crash the system, so fix it up by properly testing
for valid input and that we are up and running before trying to find a
file in the filesystem.

Some subsystems want to add debugfs files at early boot, way before
debugfs is initialized.  This seems to work somehow as the vfs layer
will not allow it to happen, but let's be explicit and test to ensure we
are properly up and running before allowing files to be created.
