Right now, the DRM panel logic returns NULL when a panel pointing to the passed OF node is not present in the list of registered panels. Most drivers interpret this NULL value as -EPROBE_DEFER, but we are about to modify the semantic of of_drm_find_panel() and let the framework return -ENODEV when the device node we're pointing to has a status property that is not equal to "okay" or "ok". Let's first patch the of_drm_find_panel() implementation to return ERR_PTR(-EPROBE_DEFER) instead of NULL and patch all callers to replace the '!panel' check by an 'IS_ERR(panel)' one.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
