Make sense.   -EPROBE_DEFER should be honored.  Maybe it's good to
check the -ENOMEM too.  I will send a new version.

IMHO you shouldn't ignore -ENOMEM from devm_pinctrl_get but just the
case for "there was no pinctrl specified in dt". Also consider the i2c
driver is loaded before the pinctrl driver and devm_pinctrl_get returns
-EPROBE_DEFER (I assume it does, didn't check), this should be handled.

Best regards

If CONFIG_PINCTRL is not enabled, the devm_pinctrl_get() will return
NULL directly as defined in the include/linux/pinctrl/consumer.h.

If CONFIG_PINCTRL is enabled because we are using a multi-platform
image but the actual hardware used doesn't have a pinctrl driver or
pinctrl device tree nodes.  It is expected that the devm_pinctrl_get()
will return error.  But as the pinctrl is only used for bus recovery
which is just an optional function of this driver.  We shouldn't
bailout the probe but keep the driver working without the bus recovery
function.  As for generic errors like (!dev) or out-of-memory, the
probe will fail elsewhere anyway.

Leo

I'm pretty sure this is wrong. If pinctrl isn't available
devm_pinctrl_get returns NULL? But AFAIK you must not ignore an error,
so the better thing to do is:

i2c_imx->pinctrl = devm_pinctrl_get(>dev);
if (IS_ERR(i2c_imx->pinctrl)) {
ret = PTR_ERR(i2c_imx->pinctrl);
goto errorhandling;
}

if (i2c_imx->pinctrl)
i2c_imx_init_recovery_info(i2c_imx, pdev);
else
dev_info(>dev, "can't get pinctrl, bus recovery feature 
disabled\n");


right?
