After trying out kernel v5.14-rc5 on my system, I no longer get any
display output. Checking dmesg, I found it's because my DRM driver
(nouveau) is failing at ttm_device_init. That is failing because of a
behavior change in ttm_global_init with respect to debugfs. debugfs is
disabled on my system, which causes ttm_global_init to fail. The
following patch fixes the issue by ignoring the debugfs failure, which
is expected, rather than allowing it to cause ttm_global_init to fail.
