Clean-up commit 8c82723414d5 ("clocksource/drivers/timer-ti-dm: Switch to platform_get_irq") caused a regression where we now try to access uninitialized data for timer: drivers/clocksource/timer-ti-dm.c: In function 'omap_dm_timer_probe': drivers/clocksource/timer-ti-dm.c:798:13: warning: 'timer' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] On boot we now get: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000004 ... (omap_dm_timer_probe) from [<c061ac7c>] (platform_drv_probe+0x48/0x98) (platform_drv_probe) from [<c0618c04>] (really_probe+0x1dc/0x348) (really_probe) from [<c0618ef4>] (driver_probe_device+0x5c/0x160) Let's fix the issue by moving platform_get_irq to happen after timer has been allocated.
