[PATCH v2] mfd/intel-lpss: Fix DebugFS initialization

[PATCH v2] mfd/intel-lpss: Fix DebugFS initialization

[Maria Lisina]

The original code defers DebugFS check with unnecessary warning message
which also appears when DebugFS is simply disabled.

Therefore it spams dmesg with these messages:

  intel-lpss 0000:00:15.0: Failed to create debugfs entries
  intel-lpss 0000:00:15.3: Failed to create debugfs entries
  intel-lpss 0000:00:1e.0: Failed to create debugfs entries
  intel-lpss 0000:00:1e.2: Failed to create debugfs entries

This patch adds proper checks to intel_lpss_exit() and
intel_lpss_debugfs_add() functions and removes warning message.
