In this driver, there is also a call to
devm_reset_control_get_exclusive() which I think can return
-EPROBE_DEFER

There isn't a message printed on that particular patch, but it would
be good to add something generic. Same for platform_get_irq()

There are some devm_clk_get() calls as well which likewise probably
want handling in a similar fashion as you have done in other patches.

Thanks,

Jonathan
