debugfs_remove() is used to remove a file or a directory from the
debugfs filesystem, but mci->debugfs might not empty.
This can be triggered by the following sequence:
1) Enable CONFIG_EDAC_DEBUG
2) insmod an EDAC module (like i3000_edac or similar)
3) rmmod this module
4) we can see files remaining under <debugfs_mountpoint>/edac/ like
"fake_inject", for example.
Removing edac_core then, causes a NULL pointer dereference.

... into a separate compilation unit and drop a couple of
CONFIG_EDAC_DEBUG ifdefferies. Rename edac_create_debug_nodes() to
edac_create_debugfs_nodes(), while at it.
No functionality change.
