The original code defers DebugFS check with unnecessary warning message
which also appears when DebugFS is simply disabled.
Therefore it spams dmesg with these messages:
intel-lpss 0000:00:15.0: Failed to create debugfs entries
intel-lpss 0000:00:15.3: Failed to create debugfs entries
intel-lpss 0000:00:1e.0: Failed to create debugfs entries
intel-lpss 0000:00:1e.2: Failed to create debugfs entries
This patch adds proper checks to intel_lpss_exit() and
intel_lpss_debugfs_add() functions and removes warning message.
