When trying to request the PWM device with devm_pwm_get(), the EPROBE_DEFER flag is not handled properly. It can lead to the PWM not being found.

I don't see this patch in Linus' tree (actually, it's not even in linux-next). I don't know where it's stuck, but could you make sure it reaches mainline for 4.2 (or 4.1 if it's not to late) ?
