iio: handle -EPROBE_DEFER in of_iio_channel_get_by_name

Commit-Message

Till now of_iio_channel_get_by_name always tried to find the channel without evaluating the return code from of_iio_channel_get. This might include -EPROBE_DEFER in which case the channel is present but its driver simply not probed yet. Therefore simply return on -EPROBE_DEFER so that the driver requesting the channel can also defer. Signed-off-by: Heiko Stuebner <heiko@...>
