Subject: [PATCHv3] wifi: ath9k: return by of_get_mac_address
Date: Tue,  5 Nov 2024 14:23:26 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241105222326.194417-1-rosenp@gmail.com> (raw)

When using nvmem, ath9k could potentially be loaded before nvmem, which
loads after mtd. This is an issue if DT contains an nvmem mac address.

If nvmem is not ready in time for ath9k, -EPROBE_DEFER is returned. Pass
it to _probe so that ath9k can properly grab a potentially present MAC
address.

 v3: only return EPROBE_DEFER to avoid terminating probe.
