The clk and regulator frameworks expect clk/regulator consumer-devices to have info about the consumed clks/regulators described in the device's fw_node. To work around cases where this info is not present in the firmware tables, which is often the case on x86/ACPI devices, both frameworks allow the provider-driver to attach info about consumers to the clks/regulators when registering these. This causes problems with the probe ordering wrt drivers for consumers of these clks/regulators. Since the lookups are only registered when the provider-driver binds, trying to get these clks/regulators before then results in a -ENOENT error for clks and a dummy regulator for regulators. To ensure the correct probe-ordering the ACPI core has code to defer the enumeration of consumers affected by this until the providers are ready. Call the new acpi_dev_ready_for_enumeration() helper to avoid enumerating / instantiating i2c-clients too early.
