Yes, the clock driver of qca8084 is probed as the MDIO device, the configuration sequence here to lighten the qca8084 PHY need to be completed before the clock APIs available to call.Please cleanly separate clock from MDIO. The MDIO driver should only use the common clock framework API calls. If the clock driver is not loaded yet, trying to get a clock should return -EPROBE_DEFER. The MDIO driver should return that from its probe function. The driver core will then try to probe the MDIO driver later, by which time the clock driver should of loaded. Andrew
Ok, will update the patches to take this solution using the clock consume APIs. Thanks Andrew for the suggestion.
