For some reasons, I received your message twice (with a two minutes
interval between both messages). These look identical. I am answering
the most recent. :)

Hmmm, I understand why you are doing this patch. But on the long term,
wouldn't it make more sense to have a devm_mux_state_get_optional()? Or
maybe add a property somewhere to inform devm_mux_state_get() that this
is optional?

Regardless, just see this as an open question. I am OK with the approach
of your patch.
