Hi Timo,

of_get_gpio_flags() can fail, so pass through the error code
properly. Most important use case is when it returns EPROBE_DEFER
so that the probe gets called again later.

I strongly prefer variables holding error codes and not being returned
to caller in success path to be called "error".

Instead of doing this maybe we could switch to gpiod interface that
handles polarity internally and does not depend on OF? The only issue is
that we have a few board files in tree that use raw gpio numbers so
we'll need to convert them...

Thanks.
