Drivers would anyways should have their debugfs related code wrapped
within ifdef. There is no point of having the code complied when it can
not be used (no debugfs support).

But I can add the  else case if we really want to:

#ifdef CONFIG_DEBUG_FS
#include <linux/debugfs.h>

struct dentry *dmaengine_get_debugfs_root(void);

#else
struct dentry;
static inline struct dentry *dmaengine_get_debugfs_root(void)
{
	return NULL;
}
#endif /* CONFIG_DEBUG_FS */
