It would be clearer with a trace, really.

Not that I'm especially good at using ftrace myself :/

I think gpiod_set_transitory() calls chip->set_config(chip, gpio, packed);
which calls  gpiochip_generic_config() which calls
pinctrl_gpio_set_config() which calls
pinctrl_get_device_gpio_range() which returns -EPROBE_DEFER;
if it can't find a range to map the GPIO to pin control.

Can you confirm this with e.g. debug prints in
pinctrl_get_device_gpio_range() in drivers/pinctrl/core.c?

To fix this, I think sx150x_probe() need to be rewritten
to register the pin controller first, then the GPIO chip,
so the range mapping is up and kicking when the chip gets
initialized.
