debugfs: remove return value of debugfs_create_file_size()

No one checks the return value of debugfs_create_file_size, as it's not
needed, so make the return value void, so that no one tries to do so in
the future.

 Create a file with an initial size, the following function can be used
 instead:
 
-    struct dentry *debugfs_create_file_size(const char *name, umode_t mode,
-				struct dentry *parent, void *data,
-				const struct file_operations *fops,
-				loff_t file_size);

+				  struct dentry *parent, void *data,
+				  const struct file_operations *fops,
+				  loff_t file_size);
 
 file_size is the initial file size. The other parameters are the same
 as the function debugfs_create_file.
