[PATCH] drivers/hid: Fix debugfs_create_dir's error checking method for hid-core

From: Alexander Kuleshov
Date: Fri Aug 14 2015 - 14:44:05 EST


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().
