Subject[PATCH 0/2] More precise error reporting for of_get_named_gpio
Date
of_get_named_gpio is a very convenient way to get a GPIO from a device
tree. However it makes no difference between an invalid property or
the absence of it and returns -EINVAL in both cases.

Sometimes a GPIO property can be optional, and so far we need to use
a separate call to e.g. of_get_property. These two patches make it
possible to differenciate both cases by having
of_parse_phandle_with_args return -ENOENT instead of -EINVAL if the
requested property does not exist, and of_get_named_gpio_flags
propage the return value of of_parse_phandle_with_args instead of
invariably returning -EINVAL/

Alexandre Courbot (2):
of: return -ENOENT when no property
gpio: propagate of_parse_phandle_with_args errors
