I tested several kernel releases between the 5.10 and 5.19 and It turn out that
the issue appear in the 5.13.y kernel.

After a long and time consuming git bisect, the first bad commit is:

Merge tag 'arm-soc-5.13' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/soc/soc:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=01d7136894410a71932096e0fb9f1d301b6ccf07

Yes this is a merge commit from Linus.

I tested the kernel from each commit parent and the prueth sill works.

So I rebased the branch arm-soc-5.13 merged by Linus to have a fast-forward
history. The second git bisect return this commit as first bad commit:

ARM: dts: Move dra7 l3 noc to a separate node:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=7f2659ce657e87cb7f47e6b15099608eaa1349ac

The switch to ti-sysc seems to have some side effect on some driver like pci-dra7xx:

"After updating pci-dra7xx driver to probe with ti-sysc and genpd, I
noticed that dra7xx_pcie_probe() would not run if a power-domains property
was configured for the interconnect target module."

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=e259c2926c016dd815e5547412356d378fc1f589

This is my current understanding of the issue... but I don't understand the side
effect of the move of the dra7 l3 noc node. Also, there is something merged
before the 'arm-soc-5.13' branch that is a second cause of the issue.

Best regards,
Romain
