Please consider -EPROBE_DEFER case

Please consider -EPROBE_DEFER case

Below code 
                if (IS_ERR(ci->phy) && IS_ERR(ci->usb_phy)) {
                        ret = -EPROBE_DEFER;
                        goto ulpi_exit;
                }    

needs to change as:

                if (PTR_ERR(ci->phy) ==-EPROBE_DEFER  ||  PTR_ERR(ci->usb_phy) == -EPROBE_DEFER) {
                        ret = -EPROBE_DEFER;
                        goto ulpi_exit;
                }
