This patch removes the error checking for debugfs_create_dir in
phy-rtk-usb2.c and phy-rtk-usb3.c. This is because the debugfs_create_dir()
does not return NULL but an ERR_PTR after an error.

The DebugFS kernel API is developed in a way that the caller can safely
ignore the errors that occur during the creation of DebugFS nodes.
The debugfs APIs have a IS_ERR() judge in start_creating() which can
handle it gracefully. so these checks are unnecessary.
