[PATCH v2 2/3] drivers:power:twl4030-charger: don't return after allocating irq

From: H. Nikolaus Schaller
Date: Mon Nov 02 2015 - 06:28:52 EST


It appears that simply returning with error status (especially
-EPROBE_DEFER) is very dangerous *after* allocating devm managed
interrupts.

See discussion of potential issues: https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/2/22/65

The result is that the boot process hangs if both, phy-twl4030-usb and this
twl4030_charger driver are compiled as modules. This has been observed
on gta04 and openpandora boards.

So we move the search and check that the twl4030-phy transceiver link is
available before we request to set up the interrupts.
