Hi Andy,
I was thinking about again to change from NULL to EPROBE_DEFER.
extcon_get_extcon_dev() function was almost called in the probe function.
But, this function might be called on other position instead of probe.
ENODEV is more correct error instead of EPROBE_DEFER.
Sorry. I'll withdraw my opinion related acked-by tag until we are clarifying it.
