During probe, return the provided errors value instead of -ENODEV. This allows the driver to be deferred probed if needed.
This is not correct AFAICT.
The driver gets defer probed *if needed*. *if needed* is for the case where platform_get_irq returns -EPROBE_DEFER, which happens if the irq controller is not ready yet.
Of course, for the other cases, the probe would just fail.

irq == 0 is clearly means error here, but will be interpretted as success when returned to the caller.
Thank you for pointing this.
It shall be 'return irq ? irq : -ENXIO;' I will send a fix for this.
As device is not initialized at that point, I'd expect some kind of crash later. Pavel
