Having no DMA devices registered is not a guarantee that the device doesn't exist, it could be that is not registered yet, so return EPROBE_DEFER unconditionally so the caller can wait for the required DMA device registered. Signed-off-by: Enric Balletbo i Serra <eballetb@redhat.com> --- This patch fixes the following error on TI AM69-SK [ 2.854501] cadence-qspi 47040000.spi: error -ENODEV: No Rx DMA available The DMA device is probed after cadence-qspi driver, so deferring it solves the problem. --- drivers/dma/dmaengine.c | 8 ++++---- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) --- base-commit: 43fb83c17ba2d63dfb798f0be7453ed55ca3f9c2 change-id: 20241127-defer-dma-request-chan-4f26c62c8691 Best regards,
