Subject: [PATCH V2] ptp: clockmatrix: Add Defer probe if firmware load fails

Clock matrix driver can be probed before the rootfs containing
firmware/initialization .bin is available. The current driver
throws a warning and proceeds to execute probe even when firmware
is not ready. Instead, defer probe and wait for the .bin file to
be available.

Signed-off-by: Sarath Babu Naidu Gaddam <sarath.babu.naidu.gaddam@....com>

Changes in V2:
1) Added mutex_unlock(idtcm->lock); before returning EPROBE_DEFER.
2) Moved failure log after defer probe.
