[PATCH] regulator: fixed: support deferred probe for DT GPIOs

From: Stephen Warren
Date: Thu Jun 28 2012 - 18:32:20 EST


From: Stephen Warren <swarren@xxxxxxxxxx>

of_get_named_gpio() needs the driver hosting the GPIO that the DT
property references to have been probed. Detect this specific failure,
and defer the probe of the whole regulator until this API can complete.

Note that of_get_named_gpio() currently returns -ENODEV in this case,
but a patch has been sent to make it return -EPROBE_DEFER. Hence, this
patch checks both so that it works with/without the other patch.
