This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled hwmon: (pmbus) Use dev_err_probe() to filter -EPROBE_DEFER error messages to the 5.10-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: hwmon-pmbus-use-dev_err_probe-to-filter-eprobe_defer.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.10 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit d20abd39a7843f50e07b6487c205d775f3361ac1 Author: Christophe JAILLET <christophe.jaillet@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Aug 17 15:04:00 2022 +0200 hwmon: (pmbus) Use dev_err_probe() to filter -EPROBE_DEFER error messages [ Upstream commit 09e52d17b72d3a4bf6951a90ccd8c97fae04e5cf ] devm_regulator_register() can return -EPROBE_DEFER, so better use dev_err_probe() instead of dev_err(), it is less verbose in such a case. It is also more informative, which can't hurt.
