I guess you mean that it will return different error codes in the different
cases.

fw_ret can be defined here and I'd just call it "ret".

"the known suppliers of this device or if the supplier information is not known."

It would be more precise to say something like this:

"Return -ENODEV if an attempt to create a device link to one of the device's
suppliers needed for probing it fails."

"Return -EAGAIN if attempts to create device links to some of the device's
suppliers have failed, but those suppliers are not necessary for probing the
device."
