Subject: [PATCH] pps: clients: gpio: Propagate return value from pps_gpio_probe

If the pps-gpio driver was probed prior to the GPIO device it uses, the
devm_gpiod_get call returned an -EPROBE_DEFER error, but pps_gpio_probe
replaced that error code with -EINVAL, causing the pps-gpio probe to
fail and not be retried later. Propagate the error return value so that
deferred probe works properly.

It's not entirely clear to me what tree PPS patches are supposed to go through.
Seems like some recent ones have gone through char-misc? Not sure if someone
has this in their queue?

LinuxPPS has no its own tree. All related patches usually are sent to me to be
acked and to Greg Kroah-Hartman for inclusion.

It looks like some MAINTAINERS links should maybe be updated for PPS - the
referenced page at http://wiki.enneenne.com/index.php/LinuxPPS_support seems to
be dead. There is http://linuxpps.org/doku.php which points to a new mailing
list location as well, but that seems to have very little activity.

Greg, can you pick this patch ( https://lkml.org/lkml/2022/1/12/879 ) up?

Yeah. Attached is a patch to fix these.

That's one of reasons why LunuxPPS doesn't have its own tree. :)

Please use lore.kernel.org, lkml.org does not work with our tools, nor
do we have any control over it.
