This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled iio:ad7266: Fix probe deferral for vref to my staging git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git in the staging-linus branch. The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.) The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the next -rc kernel release. If you have any questions about this process, please let me know. >From 68b356eb3d9f5e38910fb62e22a78e2a18d544ae Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mark Brown <broonie@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 20 Jun 2016 13:53:34 +0100 Subject: iio:ad7266: Fix probe deferral for vref Currently the ad7266 driver treats any failure to get vref as though the regulator were not present but this means that if probe deferral is triggered the driver will act as though the regulator were not present. Instead only use the internal reference if we explicitly got -ENODEV which is what is returned for absent regulators.
