Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 5.5 014/106] power: supply: bq27xxx_battery: Silence deferred-probe error

From: Dmitry Osipenko <digetx@...il.com>

[ Upstream commit 583b53ece0b0268c542a1eafadb62e3d4b0aab8c ]

The driver fails to probe with -EPROBE_DEFER if battery's power supply
(charger driver) isn't ready yet and this results in a bit noisy error
message in KMSG during kernel's boot up. Let's silence the harmless
error message.
