This seems to be a separate change. I guess it's preferable having it
as a separate patch.

1. This is a MFD sub-device, dev->parent shall always be present. But
there's no harm in being extra careful here.

2. For error codes other than -ENOMEM, we do not return from probe this
way, instead:

	return dev_err_probe(dev, -ENODEV, "error message\n");

By the way, it works just fine without it, when built as a module.

The reason it wasn't added was in a comment in a previous revision [1],
but it was removed after reviews.
