[PATCH v1] drivers:testing:Fix the NULL vs IS_ERR() bug for debugfs_create_dir()
Posted by Yang Ruibin 1 year, 5 months ago
The debugfs_create_dir() function returns error pointers.
It never returns NULL. So use IS_ERR() to check it.

Thanks for catching this, but I'll just redo the patch while it is still fresh.

BTW, which tree is this patch against?

This issue has been addressed in my linux-next branch already AFAICS.
