[PATCH] reset: core: reset-gpio: Suppress registration error for optional resets

[Andre Przywara]

For reset controllers that are marked as optional, we should skip errors
during probing and return NULL, to avoid unnecessary failures. The
reset-gpio controller does this mostly, but returns the true error in
case the __reset_add_reset_gpio_device() call fails. Treat this call the
same as the other registration errors, and consider the optional flag.

One could argue that at this point it's a proper error that should not
be ignored anymore, but in case of the reset-gpio controller this is not
entirely true, since the code at the moment does not support GPIO
controllers with three #gpio-cells - there is a TODO comment about this
in that said function. So to avoid unnecessary probe fails for devices
using reset-gpios (it's an optional reset after all), let's treat an
error as still optional at this point.

This fixes operation of WiFi chips on Allwinner boards, where some use
reset-gpios, and which currently fail because all Allwinner SoCs use
GPIO controllers with 3 cells.
