Hi Yang,

Thank you for your patch,

In the probe path, dev_err() can be replaced with dev_err_probe()
which will check if error code is -EPROBE_DEFER and prints the
error name. It also sets the defer probe reason which can be
checked later through debugfs.

If we look at the input tree, we can see that there is no occurence of
dev_err_probe():

$ ~/src/linux/drivers/input/ 483fed3b5dc8 grep -rsn dev_err_probe
$ ~/src/linux/drivers/input/ 483fed3b5dc8

The reason for this is that the input maintainer (Dmitry) dislikes
dev_err_probe() as he stated in [1]

So I don't think he will apply this.

Regards,
Mattijs
