You should also kill the ->debugfs_root field in struct doc3g [1].

You can kill this function.

This is not needed? The core expect all callers to allocate their MTD
dev with kzalloc(), so all fields that are not explicitly set should be
NULL (or 0).

Are you sure you need to explicitly set it to NULL? debugfs API seems
to gracefully handle the IS_ERR() case (see [2] or [2].

Actually, if you move the dbg.dfs_dir creation after
mtd_add_device_partitions(), and only do it if this operation
succeeded, you don't have to remove it here in case of failure.

It's even better to leave it as an ERR ptr, to avoid creating files at
the root of the debugfs FS.

If you do not set mtd->dbg.dfs_dir to NULL in case of error, it should
be:

	if (IS_ERR(root))
