This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled pinctrl: sx150x: Add a static gpio/pinctrl pin range mapping to the 4.15-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: pinctrl-sx150x-add-a-static-gpio-pinctrl-pin-range-mapping.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.15 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From b930151e5b55a0e62a3aad06876de891ac980471 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Rosin <peda@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 17 Jan 2018 14:34:23 +0100 Subject: pinctrl: sx150x: Add a static gpio/pinctrl pin range mapping From: Peter Rosin <peda@xxxxxxxxxx> commit b930151e5b55a0e62a3aad06876de891ac980471 upstream. Without such a range, gpiolib fails with -EPROBE_DEFER, pending the addition of the range. So, without a range, gpiolib will keep deferring indefinitely.
