If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Hans Holmberg commit 7b8792bbdffdff3abda704f89c6a45ea97afdc62 upstream. of_get_named_gpiod_flags fails with -EPROBE_DEFER in cases where the gpio chip is available and the GPIO translation fails. This causes drivers to be re-probed erroneusly, and hides the real problem(i.e. the GPIO number being out of range).
