[PATCH for-3.6] debugfs: change parameter check in debugfs_remove() functions

["Arend van Spriel" <arend@broadcom.com>]

The dentry parameter in debugfs_remove() and debugfs_remove_recursive()
is checked being a NULL pointer. To make cleanup by callers easier this
check is extended using the IS_ERR_OR_NULL macro instead because the
debugfs_create_... functions can return a ERR_PTR() value.

I was adding the check in driver code before calling the recursive remove,
but considered it might be a better idea to do it in debugfs itself.

No rush so I target to include it in v3.6. The patch is based on v3.4 tag.
