Even if phy driver doesn't probe, the error message can't be distinguished
from other errors. This displays error message caused by the phy driver
explicitly.

The point of the optional variant vs. devm_phy_get() is whether or not
you get an error message. So shouldn't you switch to devm_phy_get
instead?

- if (IS_ERR(priv->phy))
- return PTR_ERR(priv->phy);
+ if (IS_ERR(priv->phy)) {
+ ret = PTR_ERR(priv->phy);
+ if (ret != -EPROBE_DEFER)
+ dev_err(dev, "Failed to get phy (%d)\n", ret);
+ return ret;
+ }

The 'phys' property is optional, so if there isn't 'phys' in the PCIe node,
devm_phy_get() returns -ENODEV, and devm_phy_optional_get() returns NULL.

When devm_phy_optional_get() replaces devm_phy_get(),
condition for displaying an error message changes to:

(ret != -EPROBE_DEFER && ret != -ENODEV)

This won't be simple, but should it be replaced?

Thank you,
