Hi John,

Thank you for the patch.

The documentation states that

"The user should wait 200ms for the address to be decided, after the power 
supplies are high, before attempting to communicate with the ADV7511W using 
I2C."

The hardware user's guide further states that

"When initially powered up, there is a 200ms period before the device is ready 
to be addressed."

Not only the delay you add comes after lots of I2C communication, but the 
driver doesn't handle regulators, and thus doesn't power down the device at 
the hardware level. The initial power up should thus be long gone when this 
code is reached.

Could it be that, on the HiKey board, the power supply is controlled through 
another mean that doesn't comply with the 200ms rule ?
