This is inconsitent. In the ret==0 case you emit an error message, in
the ret < 0 case you don't. I think the sensible approach would be to
do:

	if (ret == 0) {
		dev_err(dev, "Couldn't determine # GPIO banks\n");
		return -ENOENT;
	} else if (ret < 0) {
		if (ret != -EPROBE_DEFER)
			dev_err(dev, "Failed to determine count of GPIO banks (%pe)\n", ERR_PTR(ret));
		return ret;
	}

Best regards
Uwe
