The issue seems to be related to bcm2835aux_serial_driver. I've added "initcall_debug" and "ignore_loglevel" to kernel cmdline and I got the following log: [ 4.595353] calling exar_pci_driver_init+0x0/0x30 @ 1 [ 4.600597] initcall exar_pci_driver_init+0x0/0x30 returned 0 after 44 usecs [ 4.607747] calling bcm2835aux_serial_driver_init+0x0/0x28 @ 1 The with some debug printk calls I've found that the clock lookup fails with -517 (-EPROBE_DEFER) in bcm2835aux_serial_driver: https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.6/source/drivers/tty/serial/8250/8250_bcm2835aux.c#L52 Without this patch, the lookup works fine. Please let me know if you need more information. The kernel cmdline I've use is: "8250.nr_uarts=1 console=ttyS0,115200n8 earlycon=uart8250,mmio32,0x3f215040 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rootwait rw", kernel is compiled with bcm2835_defconfig, booted on Raspberry Pi3b+ with arch/arm/boot/dts/bcm2837-rpi-3-b.dtb Best regards -- Marek Szyprowski, PhD Samsung R&D Institute Poland
