of_get_named_gpio_flags() and of_get_named_gpio() return -EPROBE_DEFER if the respective GPIO is not (yet) available. This is useful if driver's probe() functions try to get a GPIO whose controller isn't probed yet. Thus, the driver can be probed again later on.

The function still returns -EINVAL on other errors (parse error or node doesn't exist). This way, the case of an optional/intentionally missing GPIO is handled appropriately.

For this change, two sound drivers (tegra_{alc5632,wm8903}) need to be adjusted.

(That applies to the two separate sound patches too, if needed!)
