Subject: [PATCH] net: ethernet: mediatek: remove return value check of `mtk_wed_hw_add_debugfs`
Date:   Fri, 21 Apr 2023 23:10:09 +0800

Smatch complains that:
mtk_wed_hw_add_debugfs() warn: 'dir' is an error pointer or valid

Debugfs checks are generally not supposed to be checked
for errors and it is not necessary here.

fix it by just deleting the dead code.

This issue is found by static analyzer. The patched code has passed
Smatch checker, but remains untested on mediatek soc.
