4.15-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masahiro@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit b9820a31691b771db37afe2054dd3d3a680c1eed upstream.
The error pointer from devm_reset_control_get_optional_shared() is
not propagated.
One of the most common problem scenarios is it returns -EPROBE_DEFER
when the reset controller has not probed yet. In this case, the
probe of the reset consumer should be deferred.
Fixes: e2860e1f62f2 ("serial: 8250_of: Add reset support")
