I think it should only be "Failed to get PWM" only - without "deferring probe".
If the PWM is missing in .dts (which is not valid but might happen for
someone who's creating a new .dts) then the "deferring probe" part is
not correct as the error code is not -EPROBE_DEFER (it may be -ENOENT
instead - or similar).
