Hi Dmitry,

Thank you for streamlining this driver. I confirmed this streamlined driver
is nicely working on my S3C6410 board and of course I mostly like your
changes. But I'm afraid this 'error' variable is not used at the final
return statement in the probe function.

Thanks & Regards,
Kyuwon

P.S. You may need this kind of patch.
