Add a bit of documentation on what it means when a driver .probe() hook returns the -EPROBE_DEFER error code, including the limitation that -EPROBE_DEFER should be returned as early as possible, before the driver starts to register child devices. Also: minor markup fixes in the same file Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Cc: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> Cc: Saravana Kannan <saravanak@google.com> Cc: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com> Reviewed-by: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Grant Likely <grant.likely@arm.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200327170132.17275-1-grant.likely@arm.com Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
