I don't like this added complexity in the driver. IHMO if there is a
real issue, dev_pm_domain_attach_by_name() should just return a error
code, instead of NULL. The fact that you need to pull a error code out
of thin air in the driver is a big hint that this should be fixed in
the called function, not in the return handling in the driver.
A bit down the callstack genpd_dev_pm_attach_by_id() is called, which
is documented like this "Returns the created virtual device if
successfully attached PM domain, NULL when the device don't need a PM
domain [...]". NULL is a valid return code, where the driver should
_not_ stop probing, as the device should work without the power domain
attached.
