From: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> On some platforms, the clocks might be registered by a platform driver. When this is the case, the clock platform driver may very well be probed after xhci-plat, in which case the first probe() invocation of xhci-plat will receive -EPROBE_DEFER as the return value of devm_clk_get(). The current code handles that as a normal error, and simply assumes that this means that the system doesn't have a clock for the XHCI controller, and continues probing without calling clk_prepare_enable(). Unfortunately, this doesn't work on systems where the XHCI controller does have a clock, but that clock is provided by another platform driver. In order to fix this situation, we handle the -EPROBE_DEFER error condition specially, and abort the XHCI controller probe(). It will be retried later automatically, the clock will be available, devm_clk_get() will succeed, and the probe() will continue with the clock prepared and enabled as expected. In practice, such issue is seen on the ARM64 Marvell 7K/8K platform, where the clocks are registered by a platform driver.
