It's odd that you claim that the driver is always failing probe and at
the same time you say that you don't have hardware to test the driver.
=)

I know for a fact that this driver does not usually fail because it is
required on all recent chips (Tegra210 and later) to drive HDMI, which
we support on all boards, so it is indeed thoroughly tested.

If you look at the definitions of both DPAUX_HYBRID_PADCTL_MODE_I2C and
DPAUX_PADCTL_FUNC_I2C, you'll see that both are actually the same, which
is a good explanation for why the driver performs flawlessly.

That said, your change is obviously correct. I've applied it, but since
it doesn't actually fix anything, and doesn't change anything from a
binary point of view, I've removed the Fixes: and Cc: stable tags.

Thanks,
Thierry
