Subject: [PATCH] drivers: base: dd: fix memory leak with using
 debugfs_lookup()
References: bsc#1012628
Patch-mainline: 6.2.5
Git-commit: 36c893d3a759ae7c91ee7d4871ebfc7504f08c40

[ Upstream commit 36c893d3a759ae7c91ee7d4871ebfc7504f08c40 ]

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.
