Subject: [PATCH v3 04/10] i2c: core: fix adapter probe deferral loop
Date: Mon, 11 May 2026 16:37:09 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260511143715.729714-5-johan@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260511143715.729714-1-johan@kernel.org>

Drivers must not probe defer after having registered devices as that
will trigger a probe loop if the devices bind to a driver (cf. commit
fbc35b45f9f6 ("Add documentation on meaning of -EPROBE_DEFER")).

Move the recovery initialisation, where the GPIO lookup may fail, before
registering the adapter to prevent this.

Fixes: 75820314de26 ("i2c: core: add generic I2C GPIO recovery")
