[PATCH v2] vbe: Allow probing the VBE bootmeth to fail in OS fixup

Simon Glass sjg at chromium.org
Fri Jan 13 00:48:54 CET 2023


This device is created when there are no bootmeths defined in the device
tree. But it cannot be probed without a device tree node.

For now, ignore a probe failure.

Fixes: a56f663f0707 ("vbe: Add info about the VBE device to the fwupd node")

Changes in v2:
- With 'with' typo
- Change to a debug message and add a comment
