The R-Car System Controller (SYSC) driver registers PM domains from an early_initcall(). It does not use a platform driver, as secondary CPU startup on R-Car H1 needs to control the CPU power domains, before initialization of the driver framework. As fw_devlink only considers devices, it does not know that the System Controller is ready. Hence probing of on-chip devices that are part of the SYSC PM domain fails if fw_devlink is enabled: probe deferral - supplier e6180000.system-controller not ready Fix this by setting the OF_POPULATED flag for the SYSC device node after successful initialization. This will make of_link_to_phandle() ignore the SYSC device node as a dependency, and consumer devices will be probed again.
