As of commit e2a2e56e40 ("arm64: dump: no need to check return value
of debugfs_create functions") in the arm64 for-next/core branch,
ptdump_debugfs_register does not have a return value, which causes a
build error here:
drivers/firmware/efi/arm-runtime.c:51:9: error: returning 'void' from a
function with incompatible result type 'int'
return ptdump_debugfs_register(&efi_ptdump_info, "efi_page_tables");
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 error generated.
The arm version is still awaiting acceptance [1] but in anticipation
of that patch being merged, restructure this function to call
ptdump_debugfs_register without expecting a return value.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
