Sorry for the delay. As you may know I strongly dislike dev_err_probe()
as it conflates the 2 issue - error printing and noting the deferral
event that should be implemented by the resource providers (and I
believe Rob had WIP patches to push this reporting down too providers).
Could you p lease resubmit with "normal" dev_err()/dev_warn()/etc and I
will be happy to apply.
Thanks.
