Previously, we returned the error code to the caller. As said, it is
debatable whether failure to get the GPIO is "bad enough" to let the
driver's probe fail (see the past discussion [1,2]). In the end it
is a policy decision that should be taken by you and Chris. If it
stays as proposed here, you can add my Tested-By (on Kirkwood using
mvsdio) if you like.

Same reasoning applies here, of course.
