Yuan Can 7e475cf97c ntb: intel: Fix error handling in intel_ntb_pci_driver_init() 
[ Upstream commit 4c3c796aca ]

A problem about ntb_hw_intel create debugfs failed is triggered with the
following log given:

 [  273.112733] Intel(R) PCI-E Non-Transparent Bridge Driver 2.0
 [  273.115342] debugfs: Directory 'ntb_hw_intel' with parent '/' already present!

The reason is that intel_ntb_pci_driver_init() returns
pci_register_driver() directly without checking its return value, if
pci_register_driver() failed, it returns without destroy the newly created
debugfs, resulting the debugfs of ntb_hw_intel can never be created later.

 intel_ntb_pci_driver_init()
   debugfs_create_dir() # create debugfs directory
   pci_register_driver()
     driver_register()
       bus_add_driver()
         priv = kzalloc(...) # OOM happened
   # return without destroy debugfs directory

Fix by removing debugfs when pci_register_driver() returns error.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
