[PATCH] locking/lock_events: no need to check return value of debugfs_create functions

From: Tiezhu Yang
Date: Sat Nov 07 2020 - 04:19:27 EST


When calling debugfs functions, there is no need to ever check the
return value. The function can work or not, but the code logic should
never do something different based on this.
