When calling debugfs_lookup() the result must have dput() called on it,
otherwise the memory will leak over time.  To make things simpler, just
call debugfs_lookup_and_remove() instead which handles all of the logic
at once.

Hi Greg,

This driver will be removed in v6.3 via Arnd's tree:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20221021203329.4143397-13-arnd@kernel.org/

I think we can skip any work on this.

Best regards,
Krzysztof

Ok, thanks, I'll drop it from my patch queue for now.  If it sticks
around, I'll apply it :)
