Does this even happen? I'm reluctant to merge patches without real-world
justification.

  cleanup will clean all the created debugfs files as the list of file
  that are created are maintained in minor-debugfs_list.

realistically - I don't think it can happen. Even if it happens then
there will be more serious problem like memory crunch or filesystem
problem and in those cases there is no point in continuing to load the
driver.

[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v2] drm/i915: load driver even if debugfs fails

2015-07-23 Thread Sudip Mukherjee
debugfs files are not necessary for the usual operation of the driver
and the device. No need to check for the return values from the debugfs
file creation. Even if one debugfs file fails to create we try with the
next debugfs file and ultimately return success always so that the
driver continues to load.
cleanup will clean all the created debugfs files as the list of file
that are created are maintained in minor-debugfs_list.
