Hi Shawn, Is it possible to move this patch to the -fix series so that it can reach the mainline earlier? It is having a boot failure in mainline for platforms using this device without this workaround. I see Rob added a new API driver_deferred_probe_check_state() last year. Probably we should update the imx-i2c driver to use the new API for optional dependencies to avoid this kind of situation completely? Regards, Leo
