    blktrace: remove debugfs entries on bad path · fd51d251

    debugfs directory entries for devices are not removed on some
    of the failure pathes in do_blk_trace_setup().
    One way to reproduce is to start blktrace on multiple devices
    with insufficient Vmalloc space: Devices will fail with
    a message like this:
    
    	BLKTRACESETUP(2) /dev/sdu failed: 5/Input/output error
    
    If so, the respective entries in debugfs
    (e.g. /sys/kernel/debug/block/sdu) will remain and subsequent
    attempts to start blktrace on the respective devices will not
    succeed due to existing directories.
