Re: [PATCH -next v2] platform/olpc: Remove redundant null pointer checks in olpc_ec_setup_debugfs()

Hi,

Since the debugfs_create_dir() never returns a null pointer, checking
the return value for a null pointer is redundant. Since
debugfs_create_file() can deal with a ERR_PTR() style pointer, drop
the check.

Thank you for your patch, I've applied this patch to my review-hans 
branch:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pdx86/platform-drivers-x86.git/log/?h=review-hans

Note it will show up in my review-hans branch once I've pushed my
local branch there, which might take a while.

Once I've run some tests on this branch the patches there will be
added to the platform-drivers-x86/for-next branch and eventually
will be included in the pdx86 pull-request to Linus for the next
merge-window.

Regards,

Hans
