Subject[PATCH] drivers/hid: Fix debugfs_create_dir's error checking method for hid-core
Message-ID<pXsdb-206-1@gated-at.bofh.it>
The debugfs_create_dir() function returns NULL if an error occurs. This patch
adds check of the result of the debufs_create_dir() execution in the
hid_debug_register().

What sense does it make to return -ENOMEM from void function?

Fixing this is ultimately a good thing, but why did you just pick 
debugfs_create_dir() and left the other, with the same issue 
(debugfs_create_file()) intact?
