This is a preparation for debugfs restricted mode. We don't need debugfs to trace, the removed check stop tracefs to work if debugfs is not initialised. We instead tries to automount within debugfs and relay on it's handling. The code path is to create a backward compatibility from when tracefs was part of debugfs, it is now standalone and does not need debugfs. When debugfs is in restricted it is compiled in but not active and return EPERM to clients and tracefs wont work if it assumes it is active it is compiled in kernel.

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.
