Correction, that should be:

multi->clients[i] = i2c_acpi_new_device(dev, i, &board_info);
if (IS_ERR(multi->clients[i])) {
ret = PTR_ERR(multi->clients[i]);
if (ret != -EPROBE_DEFER)
dev_err(dev, "Error creating i2c-client, idx %d\n", i);
goto error;
}

We don't want to log an error when deferring.

Hans
