The patch

   spi/bcm63xx: fix error return code in bcm63xx_spi_probe()

has been applied to the spi tree at

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/spi.git 

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.  

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark

Subject: [PATCH] spi/bcm63xx: fix error return code in bcm63xx_spi_probe()

platform_get_irq() returns an error code, but the spi-bcm63xx driver
ignores it and always returns -ENXIO. This is not correct and,
prevents -EPROBE_DEFER from being propagated properly.

Notice that platform_get_irq() no longer returns 0 on error:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=e330b9a6bb35dc7097a4f02cb1ae7b6f96df92af

Print and propagate the return value of platform_get_irq on failure.

This issue was detected with the help of Coccinelle.
