The debugfs_create_dir() function returns error pointers,
it never returns NULL. Most incorrect error checks were fixed,
but the one in bond_create_debugfs() was forgotten.

Fixes: 52333512701b ("net: bonding: remove unnecessary braces")

It's not this commit to blame...
Issue was there in first place, starting in commit f073c7ca29a4 
("bonding: add the debugfs facility to the bonding driver").
