Re: [PATCH] i2c: stm32: remove unnecessary DMA kernel error log

Hi Holger,

Thanks for your patch.
there is an ongoing tree wide action to update all those common pattern
of checking for the -EPROBE_DEFER.

I thus propose, to first integrate the patch [i2c: stm32: Simplify with dev_err_probe()] that has been proposed few days ago, and on top of that add an
additional patch to check for the -ENODEV error case due to DMA being
optional.

I've prepared a patch for that and will post it now, could you consider it ?
