Subject: [PATCH review for 4.9 08/50] mfd: ab8500-sysctrl: Handle probe
 deferral

From: Linus Walleij <linus.walleij@...aro.org>

[ Upstream commit 7e9c40c63933a643908d686bd89dfc2315e8c70a ]

In the current boot, clients making use of the AB8500 sysctrl
may be probed before the ab8500-sysctrl driver. This gives them
-EINVAL, but should rather give -EPROBE_DEFER.

Before this, the abx500 clock driver didn't probe properly,
and as a result the codec driver in turn using the clocks did
not probe properly. After this patch, everything probes
properly.

Also add OF compatible-string probing. This driver is all
device tree, so let's just make a drive-by-fix of that as
well.
