Initialize debugfs_root to -ENODEV so that if the client never sets a
valid debugfs root the debugfs files will not be created.
A NULL pointer passed to any of the debugfs_create_*() functions means
"create in the root of debugfs". It doesn't mean "ignore".

[1/1] firmware: cirrus: cs_dsp: Initialize debugfs_root to invalid
commit: 66626b15636b5f5cf3d7f6104799f77462748974
All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.
You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.
If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.
Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.
Thanks,
Mark
