[RFC, PATCH 3/6] jbd: only create debugfs entries if cache initialisation is successful

From: Duane Griffin
Date: Wed Mar 05 2008 - 21:08:27 EST


JBD debugfs entries should only be created if cache initialisation is
successful. At the moment they are being created unconditionally which will
leave them dangling if cache (and hence module) initialisation fails.
