    USB: fotg210: fix memory leak with using debugfs_lookup()
    
    [ Upstream commit 6b4040f452037a7e95472577891d57c6b18c89c5 ]
    
    When calling debugfs_lookup() the result must have dput() called on it,
    otherwise the memory will leak over time.  To make things simpler, just
    call debugfs_lookup_and_remove() instead which handles all of the logic
    at once.
