debugfs: Remove redundant access mode checks

Browse Source 
debugfs_get_tree() can only be called if debugfs itself calls
simple_pin_fs() or register_filesystem(), and those call paths also
check the access mode.

debugfs_start_creating() checks the access mode so the checks in the
debugfs_create_* functions are unnecessary.

An upcoming change will affect debugfs_allow, so doing this cleanup
first will make that change simpler.
