Hi!

Currently the driver does not handle EPROBE_DEFER for the confd gpio.
Use devm_gpiod_get_optional() instead of devm_gpiod_get() and return
error codes from altera_ps_probe().

Will this result in repeated errors in dmesg in case of EPROBE_DEFER?
We often avoid printing such messages in EPROBE_DEFER case.

Yes it will. I can submit a patch for that if required.
