OST is the OS Timer, a 64-bit timer/counter with buffered reading.

SoCs before the JZ4770 had (if any) a 32-bit OST; the JZ4770 and
JZ4780 have a 64-bit OST.

This driver will register both a clocksource and a sched_clock to the
system.

Notes:
      v5: New patch

v6: - Get rid of SoC IDs; pass pointer to ingenic_ost_soc_info as
            devicetree match data instead.
          - Use device_get_match_data() instead of the of_* variant
          - Handle error of dev_get_regmap() properly

v7: Fix section mismatch by using builtin_platform_driver_probe()

      v8: builtin_platform_driver_probe() does not work anymore in
4.20-rc6? The probe function won't be called. Work around this
          for now by using late_initcall.


Did anyone notice this ? Either something is wrong with the driver, or
with the kernel core. Hacking around it seems like the worst possible
"solution".

I can confirm it still happens on 5.0-rc3.

Just to explain what I'm doing:

My ingenic-timer driver probes with builtin_platform_driver_probe (this works),
and then calls of_platform_populate to probe its children. This driver,
ingenic-ost, is one of them, and will fail to probe with
builtin_platform_driver_probe.
