Linux kernel source tree
If CONFIG_DEBUG_FS is enabled, nouveau_drm_init() returns an error if it
fails to create the "nouveau" directory in debugfs. One case where that
will happen is when debugfs access is restricted by
CONFIG_DEBUG_FS_ALLOW_NONE or by the boot parameter debugfs=off, which
cause the debugfs APIs to return -EPERM.
So just ignore errors from debugfs. Note that nouveau_debugfs_root may
be an error now, but that is a standard pattern for debugfs. From
include/linux/debugfs.h:
"NOTE: it's expected that most callers should _ignore_ the errors
returned by this function. Other debugfs functions handle the fact that
the "dentry" passed to them could be an error and they don't crash in
that case. Drivers should generally work fine even if debugfs fails to
init anyway."

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
