Subject: [PATCH] nvmet: mark nvmet_debugfs static

Mark struct dentry *nvmet_debugfs static in debugfs.c as it is only used
in debugfs.c to remove the following sparse warning reported by kernel
bot:-

drivers/nvme/target/debugfs.c:16:15: sparse: sparse: symbol 
'nvmet_debugfs' was not declared. Should it be static?
