There will be files in it: mtdswap_stats, nandsim_wear_report, docg3 files.

$ git grep dbg.dfs_dir drivers/mtd/
drivers/mtd/devices/docg3.c:    struct dentry *root = floor->dbg.dfs_dir;
drivers/mtd/mtdcore.c:  mtd->dbg.dfs_dir = root;
drivers/mtd/mtdcore.c:          debugfs_remove_recursive(mtd->dbg.dfs_dir);
drivers/mtd/mtdswap.c:  struct dentry *root = d->mtd->dbg.dfs_dir;
drivers/mtd/nand/raw/nandsim.c: struct dentry *root = nsmtd->dbg.dfs_dir;
drivers/mtd/ubi/debug.c:                debugfs_remove_recursive(ubi->dbg.dfs_dir);
