Subject: debugfs: remove return value of debugfs_create_x8()
X-Git-Url: http://git.maquefel.me/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c7c1168909410e692be6df17d0092363a00f33a9;p=linux.git

debugfs: remove return value of debugfs_create_x8()

No one checks the return value of debugfs_create_x8(), as it's not
needed, so make the return value void, so that no one tries to do so in
the future.
