While devm_gpiod_get_index_optional() returns NULL if the GPIO is not
present (i.e. -ENOENT), it may still return other error codes, like
-EPROBE_DEFER. Currently these are not handled, leading to
unrecoverable failures later in case of probe deferral:
gpiod_set_consumer_name: invalid GPIO (errorpointer)
gpiod_direction_output: invalid GPIO (errorpointer)
gpiod_set_value_cansleep: invalid GPIO (errorpointer)
gpiod_set_value_cansleep: invalid GPIO (errorpointer)
gpiod_set_value_cansleep: invalid GPIO (errorpointer)
Detect and propagate errors to fix this.
Fixes: f3186dd876 ("spi: Optionally use GPIO descriptors for CS GPIOs")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
