patch "iio:ad7266: Fix probe deferral for vref" added to staging-linus

This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

iio:ad7266: Fix probe deferral for vref

to my staging git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git
in the staging-linus branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the next -rc kernel release.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: iio:ad7266: Fix probe deferral for vref

Currently the ad7266 driver treats any failure to get vref as though the regulator were not present but this means that if probe deferral is triggered the driver will act as though the regulator were not present. Instead only use the internal reference if we explicitly got -ENODEV which is what is returned for absent regulators.
