stable inclusion from stable-v5.10.143 commit 68f22c80c18186f3dba9b2b60bd05488987ae7ce category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I6D0U6
Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=...
--------------------------------
commit dec9b2f1e0455a151a7293c367da22ab973f713e upstream.
There is a very common pattern of using debugfs_remove(debufs_lookup(..)) which results in a dentry leak of the dentry that was looked up. Instead of having to open-code the correct pattern of calling dput() on the dentry, create debugfs_lookup_and_remove() to handle this pattern automatically and properly without any memory leaks.
