[FAIL bisect] Sound card probe error

[Krzysztof Kozlowski]

Hi All,

I experienced an issue on today's next 20180514. Found on Odroid XU3
board (Exynos5422, ARMv7, octa-core) with exynos_defconfig.

1. No sound card is probed:
[    6.717698] ALSA device list:
[    6.719303]   No soundcards found.
(expected: #0: Odroid-XU3)


2. Oops happens:
[  OK  ] Started udev Kernel Device Manager.

3. No DRM device is probed/found.

I could not find any specific reasons of this failure (like earlier
failures... except some probe deferrals which are happening almost
alwats).

    driver core: Respect all error codes from dev_pm_domain_attach()

    The limitation of being able to check only for -EPROBE_DEFER from
    dev_pm_domain_attach() has been removed. Hence let's respect all error
    codes and bail out accordingly.
