As I just replied to Greg, this patch is obsolete and replaced by 'spmi:
pmic-arb: Move the ownership check to irq_chip callback' [1].

With the patch applied, we can get rid of the spmi-gpio probe failure.
So from the point of fixing the issue, your patch is not needed.  But I
would like to discuss your patch a bit, and will reply to your patch
with my comments.
