I re-tested this on todays linux tree v6.1-rc7-103-gef4d3ea40565. With CONFIG_AHCI_DWC=y the kernel fell on its back and no output was produced So changing the ahci_dwc_init to be a late_initcall [1] made me see what was going on [2]. The kernel booted fine with CONFIG_AHCI_DWC=y + this patch [3] --- a/drivers/ata/libahci_platform.c +++ b/drivers/ata/libahci_platform.c @@ -109,7 +109,8 @@ struct clk *ahci_platform_find_clk(struct ahci_host_priv *hpriv, const char *con int i; for (i = 0; i < hpriv->n_clks; i++) { - if (!strcmp(hpriv->clks[i].id, con_id)) + if (hpriv->clks && hpriv->clks[i].id && + !strcmp(hpriv->clks[i].id, con_id)) return hpriv->clks[i].clk; } Bootlog [4].

The patch was also tested [5] without enabling CONFIG_AHCI_DWC, this also worked fine.
