Has to be the first line of the file, did you run this through
checkpatch?

This is an anti-pattern, and one guaranteed to not work properly. NEVER
do this.

Same here, not ok.

Nope!

And why -EIO? That is not an io issue.

How can that variable ever be NULL (hint, it can not.)

Never test the result of any debugfs call, you do not need to. Just
call it and move on, your code flow should NEVER be different with, or
without, a successful debugfs call.

Again no. I hate to know what code you copied this all from, as that
code is very wrong. Do you have a pointer to that code anywhere so we
can fix that up?

If you really care about module references you should be setting the
owner of the module here.

Why not just recursivly remove the directory? That way you do not have
to keep track of any individual files.

Again, can never happen, and again, do not do different things depending
on the result of a debugfs call.

Again, nope.

why (void)?

nope :)

Nope :)

{sigh} I'll stop reviewing now :)
