Subject: [PATCH v4] remoteproc: stm32: fix probe error case

If the rproc driver is probed before the mailbox driver and if the rproc
Device Tree node has some mailbox properties, the rproc driver probe
shall be deferred instead of being probed without mailbox support.

Signed-off-by: Fabien Dessenne <[email protected]>
---
Changes since v3: on error, free mailboxes from stm32_rproc_request_mbox()
Changes since v2: free other requested mailboxes after one request fails
Changes since v1: test IS_ERR() before checking PTR_ERR()

Do you need to set ddata->mb[i].chan to NULL as it is done in
stm32_rproc_free_mbox?

Also I'm wondering about the error path for this function. If something goes
wrong in mbox_request_channel_byname() none of the previously allocated channels
are freed and no further actions is taken. Should we simply abort the probing
of the rproc if any of channels can't be probed?

Regardless of the above and without surprise:

This is probably useless : when we hit this error, we exit the probe
function without any need to track the channels status. Later when the
probe deferral triggers the probe call again, rproc_alloc() is called
and zero-allocates the private data (=channels, ...)

The assignment to NULL in stm32_rproc_free_mbox is probably useless too,
but I prefer to not clean it up now.

The mailboxes are optional (specified as DT optional properties) so we
shall not break on mbox_request_channel() errors.

It's idiomatic to just use 'i' itself here. But I applied this as is,
with Mathieu's t-b.

Thanks,
