Commit Message

The driver overrides the error codes and IRQ0 returned by platform_get_irq()
to -EINVAL, so if it returns -EPROBE_DEFER, the driver will fail the probe
permanently instead of the deferred probing. Switch to propagating the error
codes upstream.  IRQ0 is no longer returned by platform_get_irq(), so we now
can safely ignore it...

Fixes: 660fc733bd74 ("mmc: bcm2835: Add new driver for the sdhost controller.")

   Unfortunately, no. IRQ0 finally ceased to be returned in 5.19; there was a fat
warning in platform_get_irq() and friends before that (which is still there)...

   I think the deferred probing can currently occur only with DT platforms
(I may be wrong here). Is this your case?

Okay, in this case the usage of the fixes tag is wrong. Maybe we should 
refer to the commit which changed platform_get_irq()?

AFAIK Raspberry Pi was always a DT platform in the mainline kernel. At 
least in Linux 4.14.

   Why? Returning -EPROBE_DEFER from platform_get_irq() predates this driver.

   No, IRQ0 is a different issue than that I'm trying to solve here.

   ACPI too (I was too lazy to look on the code yesterday).

   Good to know. :-)
