+Subject: net: mvpp2: debugfs: fix memory leak when using debugfs_lookup()
+
+From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
+
+[ Upstream commit fe2c9c61f668cde28dac2b188028c5299cedcc1e ]
+
+When calling debugfs_lookup() the result must have dput() called on it,
+otherwise the memory will leak over time. Fix this up to be much
+simpler logic and only create the root debugfs directory once when the
+driver is first accessed. That resolves the memory leak and makes
+things more obvious as to what the intent is.
