[PATCH] leds: leds-gpio: Pass on error codes unmodified

From: Soren Brinkmann
Date: Sat Jan 31 2015 - 22:15:49 EST


Instead of overriding error codes, pass them on unmodified. This
way a EPROBE_DEFER is correctly passed to the driver core. This results
in the LED driver correctly requesting probe deferral in cases the GPIO
controller is not yet available.

Adding pinctrl on Zynq shuffled with probing order quite a bit and a lot
of deferred probing is going on. With those changes I saw the LEDs
failing to probe due to the GPIO controller deferring probe until the
pincontroller is available. With this patch things work again:

dmesg | grep -i led:
of_get_named_gpiod_flags: parsed 'gpios' property of node '/leds/ds23[0]' - status (-517)
platform leds: Driver leds-gpio requests probe deferral
of_get_named_gpiod_flags: parsed 'gpios' property of node '/leds/ds23[0]' - status (0)
