^^^^^^
Should this propagate the actual error code from
syscon_regmap_lookup_by_phandle_args() instead of always returning
-ENODEV? If the syscon lookup returns -EPROBE_DEFER, this will lose
that error code and prevent the driver from properly deferring its
probe when dependencies aren't ready yet.
Other dwmac drivers (dwmac-loongson1, dwmac-starfive, dwmac-sun8i) use
something like:
return dev_err_probe(dev, PTR_ERR(regmap), "...\n");
or
return PTR_ERR(regmap);
to propagate the error.
