Hi,
First thanks for the patch, it fixes the kexec hang I was looking at...
Unfortunately it means the soc is now init much later and other piece of
drivers that depend on querying the soc will fail, I am getting a BUG in
the caam crypto driver from 7d981405d0fd ("soc: imx8m: change to use
platform driver") + ce58459d8c7f ("arm64: dts: imx8m: add SoC ID
compatible") on the imx8mp evk as follow:

This particular crash can be fixed by making the caam driver delay as
well if the device isn't inited yet, e.g. this works:

But it obviously doesn't cover the ~50 (!) other soc_device_match users
in the code base which would all need to start handling potential error
return code.
(I also had problems with other drivers when trying to backport the
patch to the 5.4.70_2.3.0 imx kernel but I just gave up on that one)
I think having all drivers handle potential EPROBE_DEFER errors is the
best way forward, how do you propose to move on?
I can do some but have no way of testing most of these so am a bit
reluctant to...
Thanks,
