Currently the error checking logic in the dp_debug module could pass zero to PTR_ERR and it causes the below kbot warnings: drivers/gpu/drm/msm/dp/dp_debug.c:378 dp_debug_init() warn: passing zero to 'PTR_ERR' drivers/gpu/drm/msm/dp/dp_debug.c:387 dp_debug_init() warn: passing zero to 'PTR_ERR' drivers/gpu/drm/msm/dp/dp_debug.c:396 dp_debug_init() warn: passing zero to 'PTR_ERR' drivers/gpu/drm/msm/dp/dp_debug.c:405 dp_debug_init() warn: passing zero to 'PTR_ERR' Debugfs functions are not supposed to be checked in the normal case so delete this code. Also it silences the above Smatch warnings that we're checking for NULL when these functions only return error pointers.

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.
