[PATCH 0/6] ASoC: samsung: Improve probe error handling

[phucduc.bui]

From: bui duc phuc <phucduc.bui@gmail.com>

Hi all,

This series improves probe error handling in several Samsung ASoC
drivers.

Preserve the original error code from gpiod_to_irq() and use
dev_err_probe() where appropriate. Also remove redundant probe error
messages where the called functions already report the error.

Compile-tested only.

Best regards,
Phuc

[PATCH 1/6] ASoC: samsung: aries_wm8994: Preserve gpiod_to_irq() error codes

[phucduc.bui]

From: bui duc phuc <phucduc.bui@gmail.com>

gpiod_to_irq() can currently return several error codes, including
-ENXIO, -ENODEV, -EPROBE_DEFER, and -EINVAL.

Return the original error code instead of overwriting it with -EINVAL,
so that the actual failure reason is preserved.

To be fair, xxx_snd_soc_register_component(), both the devres and the 
non-devres equivalent do not report anything.  The 
component_initialize() and component_add() do though, most of the time.

[phucduc.bui]

From: bui duc phuc <phucduc.bui@gmail.com>

Replace dev_err() with dev_err_probe() to prevent log spam when probe
returns -EPROBE_DEFER.

Which function reports the dmaengine registration failure?
