It is the pool index. Yes, there is problem here.
I will change it to atomic and increased every time a new zs pool created.
And then name the /sys/kernel/debug/pool-x using this index.

static atomic_t zs_pool_index = ATOMIC_INIT(0);
...
pool->index = atomic_inc_return(&zs_pool_index);

Yes, the "#include ..." should be on the top of the source file.
I will modify it.

Yes, I think we need this check.
When debugfs module init failed, we should not go ahead here.

This check is not for the situation when the debugfs is not enabled.
But for if we failed in debugfs_init(), then
we should not use any API of debugfs.

And I think "-%ENODEV will be returned" means below code in "debugfs.h"

static inline struct dentry *debugfs_create_dir(const char *name,
struct dentry *parent)
{
    return ERR_PTR(-ENODEV);
}

Yes, you are right.  -ENOMEM is not the only reason for the failure.
But debugfs_create_dir does not bring back the errno.
And for zsmalloc, we indeed have the permission(-EPERM) to create the entry and
also we will not create duplicate(-EEXIST) entry in debufs.

So, I think -ENOMEM is suitable.

It is better to check the return value and give user some information
about the failure.
