4 Subject: [PATCH] nvmem: core: handle the absence of expected layouts
6 Make nvmem_layout_get() return -EPROBE_DEFER while the expected layout
7 is not available. This condition cannot be triggered today as nvmem
8 layout drivers are initialed as part of an early init call, but soon
9 these drivers will be converted into modules and be initialized with a
10 standard priority, so the unavailability of the drivers might become a
11 reality that must be taken care of.
13 Let's anticipate this by telling the caller the layout might not yet be
14 available. A probe deferral is requested in this case.
16 Please note this does not affect any nvmem device not using layouts,
17 because an early check against the "nvmem-layout" container presence
18 will return NULL in this case.
