The debugfs_create_dir() function returns error pointers.
It never returns NULL. So use IS_ERR() to check it.

Fixes: d1313e7896e9 ("iommu/tegra-smmu: Add debugfs support")

There is no need to check the return value of debugfs_create_dir(). This
change cannot fix anything as far as I can see. Just remove the check.
