It seems you are saying why debugfs_create_dir can fail but zsmalloc will not
fail by such reasons.
I don't know the internal of debugfs_create_dir but description just says
"If an error occurs, %NULL will be returned" but everyone returns ENOMEM
blindly then. Hmm, I don't think it's good but I'm okay too because it's not
our fault and others have been in there. :(

When I look at zs_init, you don't propagate the error to user. Just missing?
