    gpio: Propagate all errors in devm_get_gpiod_from_child() · 40c8eaba

    devm_get_gpiod_from_child() tries several property suffixes to find a
    GPIO descriptor. If all suffixes fail and no probe deferral has been
    detected, it returns the error of the last try.
    
    However, if any but the last try fails with a real error (e.g. -EBUSY),
    this error is not propagated, and -ENOENT will be returned.
    This confuses drivers that e.g. want to detect if a GPIO is already in
    use.
    
    To fix this, change the loop logic to continue on -ENOENT, which
    indicates the property was not found and the next suffix should be
    tried, and propagate all other detected errors.
