Yikes, silly me. Thanks for the suggestion. Will fix this in v3.

Yes, makes sense.

Umm, sure would save us a few lines but it seems to me like we are
trading off readability here. If no one agrees, will change it the way
you pointed out.

I think this function making an early exit makes more sense. The
CHIP_probe() looks less "noisy" that way.

I suppose one can use software triggers like hrtimer and sysfs-trig...
