Your patch hides a bug. That's my point. How do you expect am335x ever to support gpmc devices if this bug is not addressed? So I think that you are over-simplifying it when you say that my patch is just a clean-up patch. I agree that it is adding appropriate error handling, but it also highlights the presence of a bug by allowing the probe to fail. Anyway, I don't care to debate this any further, we just need to fix gpmc_mem_init().
