No one checks the return value of debugfs_create_atomic_t(), as it's not
needed, so make the return value void, so that no one tries to do so in
the future.

 Also, atomic_t values can be placed in debugfs with:
 
-    struct dentry *debugfs_create_atomic_t(const char *name, umode_t mode,
-				struct dentry *parent, atomic_t *value)
+    void debugfs_create_atomic_t(const char *name, umode_t mode,

 A read of this file will get atomic_t values, and a write of this file
 will set atomic_t values.
