This patch removes the error checking for debugfs_create_dir in adm1266.c. This is because the debugfs_create_dir() does not return NULL but an ERR_PTR after an error. The DebugFS kernel API is developed in a way that the caller can safely ignore the errors that occur during the creation of DebugFS nodes.The debugfs Api handles it gracefully. The check is unnecessary.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
