From: "Ethan Zhao" <ethan.ker...@gmail.com>
Should check debugfs initialization with debugfs_initialized() before using it,
Because if it isn't initialized, the return value of fake debugfs_create_dir()
etc
functions would be ERR_PTR(-ENODEV), checking with NULL will not work.
V2: change to normative author name.
