Doing debugfs creation after vm creation leaves things in a quasi-initialized state for a while. This is further complicated by the fact that we tear down debugfs from kvm_destroy_vm(). Align debugfs and stats init/destroy with the vm init/destroy pattern to avoid any headaches. Note the fix for a benign mistake in error handling for calls to kvm_arch_create_vm_debugfs() rolled in. Since all implementations of the function return 0 unconditionally it isn't actually a bug at the moment. Lastly, tear down debugfs/stats data in the kvm_create_vm_debugfs() error path. Previously it was safe to assume that kvm_destroy_vm() would take out the garbage, that is no longer the case.

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.
