Except for the verbosity of the error messages, this looks pretty sane to me.
Regulator probe gets deferred because the required GPIO isn't accessible yet,
and the device gets reprobed later on.
I'm not against moving the gpio-rcar initialization to postcore or subsys
initcall, but in that case I believe we should standardize (or at least try
to) this across the GPIO drivers. We currently have
$ cat drivers/gpio/gpio-*.c | grep _initcall | grep '^[a-z]' | sed 's/(.*//' |
sort | uniq -c
2 arch_initcall
1 core_initcall
1 device_initcall
1 late_initcall
11 postcore_initcall
2 pure_initcall
31 subsys_initcall
$ cat drivers/gpio/gpio-*.c | grep 'module_.*_driver' | sed 's/(.*//' | sort |
uniq -c
3 module_i2c_driver
4 module_pci_driver
23 module_platform_driver
1 module_spi_driver
Linus, do you have any guidelines on this ?
