PATCH 1/1 video: fbdev: pxa3xx_gcu: fix error return code in pxa3xx_gcu_probe()

platform_get_irq() returns an error code, but the pxa3xx_gcu driver ignores it and always returns -ENODEV. This is not correct and, prevents -EPROBE_DEFER from being propagated properly.

Also, notice that platform_get_irq() no longer returns 0 on error:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?idã30b9a6bb35dc7097a4f02cb1ae7b6f96df92af

Print and propagate the return value of platform_get_irq on failure.

This issue was detected with the help of Coccinelle.
