Good news! I tested patches on T20 and T30, everything works perfect this time.
Please address the review comments and prepare the new version.
BTW, I noticed that there are more deferred probes in the KMSG log with this
patch. That is unsurprising because Tegra I2C driver is registered from the
subsys level and APB DMA driver from the module level, hence I2C device can
probe successfully only after the APB DMA.
The small change helps to reduce the amount of deferring during boot, please
consider including it into this patch:
