Hi Minje,
as Markus suggested, the title
“i2c: gpio: Fix an error check in i2c_gpio_fault_injector_init()”
looks more appropriate and...

... I think you should fix a bit the log here (also Mark has
suggested it). How about something like:
debugfs_create_dir() function returns an error value embedded in
the pointer (PTR_ERR). We need to evaluate the return value using
IS_ERR, rather than checking for NULL.

At the end it can be something like:
i2c: gpio: Fix an error check in i2c_gpio_fault_injector_init()
debugfs_create_dir() function returns an error value embedded in
the pointer (PTR_ERR). Evaluate the return value using IS_ERR
rather than checking for NULL.

I'm not sure whether Wolfram can fix it or, if you don't feel
lazy, you can send a v4.

Please update also the changelog, v2-v3 and v3-v4.
Thanks, Markus, for the suggestions.

Well, it depends why you need to handle the error return. I think
it's not important if this fails... the only reason I would
handle the error here is to print a warning in dmesg.
Thank you,
