I spoke too soon: if CONFIG_POWER_RESET_RMOBILE=n,
booting fails again, as everything is waiting on the system controller,
which never becomes available.
Rcar-sysc doesn't suffer from this problem, cfr. above.
Perhaps because the rmobile-sysc bindings use a hierarchical instead
of a linear PM domain description, and thus consumers point to the
children of the system controller node?

This is indeed a pre-existing problem.
of_genpd_add_device() is called before platform_device_register(),
as it needs to attach the genpd before the device is probed.
But the spinlock is only initialized when the device is registered.
This was masked before due to an unrelated wait context check failure,
which disabled any further spinlock checks, and exposed by fw_devlinks
changing probe order.
Patch sent.
