Yes, the clock driver of qca8084 is probed as the MDIO device, the

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.

Ok, will update the patches to take this solution using the clock
consume APIs. Thanks Andrew for the suggestion.
