[PATCH] ppc4xx: ocm: fix errnous "failed to create file" errors

Previously, the kernel would complain:

| debugfs ppc4xx ocm: failed to create file

But the "info" file was still created and working. This
is because debugfs_create_file() returns a pointer to a
struct *dentry on success or -ENODEV when debugfs isn't
available. This patch fixes both the debugfs_create_dir()
and debugfs_create_file() check, so this will work as
expected.

Typically we would just make the whole function not compile when DEBUG_FS
is disabled, eg:

I don't really mind, but I think the #ifdef approach is simpler to
reason about.
