This series changes every occurence of the following pattern: dsi_host = of_find_mipi_dsi_host_by_node(dsi); if (!dsi_host) { dev_err(dev, "failed to find dsi host\n"); return -EPROBE_DEFER; } into dsi_host = of_find_mipi_dsi_host_by_node(dsi); if (!dsi_host) return dev_err_probe(dev, -EPROBE_DEFER, "failed to find dsi host\n"); This registers the defer probe reason (so it can later be printed by the driver core or checked on demand through the devices_deferred file in debugfs) and prevents errors to be spammed in the kernel log every time the driver retries to probe, unnecessarily alerting userspace about something that is a normal part of the boot process. I have omitted a Fixes: tag in the last patch, for the truly-nt35597 panel, because it predates the dev_err_probe() helper. Changes in v2: - Added patches 2 onwards to fix all occurences of this pattern instead of just for the anx7625 driver - Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240226-anx7625-defer-log-no-dsi-host-v1-1-242b1af31884@xxxxxxxxxxxxx --- Nícolas F.
