Hi Saravana, Thanks for your patch!

Note that this can also be the case for buses declaring compatibility with "simple-pm-bus". However, at the moment, none of such device nodes in upstream DTS files have device-specific drivers. > [1] - https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CAPDyKFo9Bxremkb1dDrr4OcXSpE0keVze94Cm=zrkOVxHHxBmQ@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ > Signed-off-by: Saravana Kannan <saravanak@xxxxxxxxxx> > Tested-by: Saravana Kannan <saravanak@xxxxxxxxxx> > --- a/drivers/bus/simple-pm-bus.c > +++ b/drivers/bus/simple-pm-bus.c > @@ -13,11 +13,26 @@ > #include <linux/platform_device.h> > #include <linux/pm_runtime.h> > > - > static int simple_pm_bus_probe(struct platform_device *pdev) > { > - const struct of_dev_auxdata *lookup = dev_get_platdata(&pdev->dev); > - struct device_node *np = pdev->dev.of_node; > + const struct device *dev = &pdev->dev; > + const struct of_dev_auxdata *lookup = dev_get_platdata(dev); > + struct device_node *np = dev->of_node; > + const struct of_device_id *match; > + > + match = of_match_device(dev->driver->of_match_table, dev); > + > + /* > + * These are transparent bus devices (not simple-pm-bus matches) that > + * have their child nodes populated automatically.

Perhaps it can be shared?
