[PATCH 4.8 008/138] gpio / ACPI: fix returned error from acpi_dev_gpio_irq_get()

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Nov 09 2016 - 06:05:59 EST


4.8-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: David Arcari <darcari@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 67bf5156edc4f58241fd7c119ae145c552adddd6 upstream.

acpi_dev_gpio_irq_get() currently ignores the error returned
by acpi_get_gpiod_by_index() and overwrites it with -ENOENT.

Problem is this error can be -EPROBE_DEFER, which just blows
up some drivers when the module ordering is not correct.
