I think in this case it would actually make things uglier because I'd 
have to check for -EPROBE_DEFER. So something like

     drv_data->reset_gpio = devm_gpiod_get_optional(&pd->dev, "reset", 
GPIOD_OUT_HIGH);
     if (IS_ERR(drv_data->reset_gpio) && PTR_ERR(drv_data->reset_gpio) 
== -EPROBE_DEFER)
         return PTR_ERR(drv_data->reset_gpio);
     else
         drv_data->reset_gpio = NULL;

I could probably come up with something less ugly with a local variable 
or two but nothing as tidy as just returning on error.

Yep sure. Will include in the next round.
