You are right about the changelog. I think this one is much better:

platform_get_irq() returns an error code, but the tegra-devfreq
driver ignores it and always returns -ENODEV. 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 error message and propagate the return value of
platform_get_irq on failure.


What do you think?

Thank you!
