Comparison of dmesg before/after enabling debugging, for
related nodes:

    +interrupt-controller@e61c0000 Linked as a fwnode consumer to
clock-controller@e6150000

    +pmic@58 Linked as a fwnode consumer to interrupt-controller@e61c0000
    +regulator@68 Linked as a fwnode consumer to interrupt-controller@e61c0000

Other user of irqc

    +ethernet-phy@1 Linked as a fwnode consumer to gpio@e6055000

PHY linked correctly to consumers

    +platform e61c0000.interrupt-controller: error -EPROBE_DEFER:

Tried to probe irqc (why? consumer not ready), deferred.

device_add
    +platform e60b0000.i2c: Linked as a sync state only consumer to

I guess sync state means through other (child) consumers (pmic,
regulator) above?

    +device: 'platform:e6060000.pinctrl--platform:ee700000.ethernet': device_add

Hence linking ethernet to child (phy) consumers.

    +device: 'ee700000.ethernet-ffffffff': device_add

Probing ethernet...

     libphy: fwnode_get_phy_id: fwnode
/soc/ethernet@ee700000/ethernet-phy@1 phy_id = 0x00221537
     libphy: fwnode_get_phy_id: fwnode

    +fwnode_mdiobus_phy_device_register: fwnode_irq_get() returned -517
    +fwnode_mdiobus_phy_device_register: ignoring -EPROBE_DEFER

This is the part that got changed by this patch.

Why was ethernet probed this early?
We knew the supplier of the phy was still missing?

    +device: 'eth1': device_add
     sh-eth ee700000.ethernet eth1: Base address at 0xee700000,

Finally, irqc is probed.

Propagating other irqc suppliers to the parent of their consumers

That didn't help much, as this is the messenger, not the cause.

Thanks!
