It will connect to the mipi dsi host and find the corresponding mipi dsi host node, but the node registered by the mipi dsi host has not been loaded yet. of_find_mipi_dsi_host_by_node() returns -EINVAL which causes the calling driver to fail.
If the anx7625 driver is loaded afterwards the driver requesting the mipi dsi host will not notice this.
Better approach is to return -EPROBE_DEFER in such case. Then when the anx7625 driver appears the driver requesting the mipi dsi host will be probed again.
