Subject: Applied "spi: Add missing error handling for CS GPIOs" to the spi tree

The patch

   spi: Add missing error handling for CS GPIOs

has been applied to the spi tree at

   https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/spi.git 

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.  

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark

Subject: [PATCH] spi: Add missing error handling for CS GPIOs

While devm_gpiod_get_index_optional() returns NULL if the GPIO is not
present (i.e. -ENOENT), it may still return other error codes, like
-EPROBE_DEFER.  Currently these are not handled, leading to
unrecoverable failures later in case of probe deferral:

    gpiod_set_consumer_name: invalid GPIO (errorpointer)
    gpiod_direction_output: invalid GPIO (errorpointer)
    gpiod_set_value_cansleep: invalid GPIO (errorpointer)
    gpiod_set_value_cansleep: invalid GPIO (errorpointer)
    gpiod_set_value_cansleep: invalid GPIO (errorpointer)

Detect and propagate errors to fix this.
