[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.9 27/91] net/mlx5: Continue driver initialization despite debugfs failure

[Sasha Levin]

From: Leon Romanovsky <leonro@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 199fa087dc6b503baad06712716fac645a983e8a ]

The failure to create debugfs entry is unpleasant event, but not enough
to abort drier initialization. Align the mlx5_core code to debugfs design
and continue execution whenever debugfs_create_dir() successes or not.

Fixes: e126ba97dba9 ("mlx5: Add driver for Mellanox Connect-IB adapters")
