Here it is: https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/943148/ but hasn't arrived in linux-next. But it is questionable if a driver should dev_info() about doing deferred probing. IMHO, it should just do it which is how Andreas' patch works. > >> Fixes: b7290cf6ff78 (pwm: pwm-omap-dmtimer: Adapt driver to utilize dmtimer pdata ops) >> Signed-off-by: Andreas Kemnade <andreas@xxxxxxxxxxxx> >> --- >> drivers/pwm/pwm-omap-dmtimer.c | 3 +-- >> 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 2 deletions(-) >> >> diff --git a/drivers/pwm/pwm-omap-dmtimer.c b/drivers/pwm/pwm-omap-dmtimer.c >> index 665da3c8fbce..808835179c2e 100644 >> --- a/drivers/pwm/pwm-omap-dmtimer.c >> +++ b/drivers/pwm/pwm-omap-dmtimer.c >> @@ -264,8 +264,7 @@ static int pwm_omap_dmtimer_probe(struct platform_device *pdev) >> >> timer_pdata = dev_get_platdata(&timer_pdev->dev); >> if (!timer_pdata) { >> - dev_err(&pdev->dev, "dmtimer pdata structure NULL\n"); >> - ret = -EINVAL; >> + ret = -EPROBE_DEFER; >> goto put; >> } >> >> -- >> 2.11.0 >> BR, Nikolaus -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
