[ Upstream commit 6a3ff858915fa8ca36c7eb02c87c9181ae2fc333 ]
A problem about 8250_bcm7271 create debugfs failed is triggered with the following log given:
[ 324.516635] debugfs: Directory 'bcm7271-uart' with parent '/' already present!
The reason is that brcmuart_init() returns platform_driver_register() directly without checking its return value, if platform_driver_register() failed, it returns without destroy the newly created debugfs, resulting the debugfs of 8250_bcm7271 can never be created later.
brcmuart_init() debugfs_create_dir() # create debugfs directory platform_driver_register() driver_register() bus_add_driver() priv = kzalloc(...) # OOM happened # return without destroy debugfs directory
Fix by removing debugfs when platform_driver_register() returns error.
