Hi Dragan,

kernel test robot noticed the following build errors:

[auto build test ERROR on rockchip/for-next]
[also build test ERROR on broonie-spi/for-next driver-core/driver-core-testing driver-core/driver-core-next driver-core/driver-core-linus linus/master v6.11 next-20240927]
[If your patch is applied to the wrong git tree, kindly drop us a note.

  5019	 * This helper implements common pattern present in probe functions for error

  5021	 * -EPROBE_DEFER and propagate error upwards.
  5022	 * In case of -EPROBE_DEFER it sets also defer probe reason, which can be
  5023	 * checked later by reading devices_deferred debugfs attribute.
  5024	 * It replaces the following code sequence::
  5025	 *
  5026	 * 	if (err != -EPROBE_DEFER)
  5027	 * 		dev_err(dev, ...);

  5038	 * The benefit compared to a normal dev_err() is the standardized format
  5039	 * of the error code, which is emitted symbolically (i.e. you get "EAGAIN"
  5040	 * instead of "-35"), and having the error code returned allows more
  5041	 * compact error paths.
