[PATCH] regulator:core.c: Fix error checking for debugfs_create_dir

[Osama Muhammad]

This patch fixes the error checking in core.c in debugfs_create_dir.
The correct way to check if an error occurred is 'IS_ERR' inline function.

      commit: 2bf1c45be3b8f3a3f898d0756c1282f09719debd

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark
