There is a newer solution here which Grant seemed happier with: http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1403.2/03666.html Does it work for you? > The addition of of_platform_probe() is based on patches posted earlier by > Thierry Reding <thierry.red...@gmail.com>. I fail to see how this patch does EPROBE_DEFER and solves the problem. Don't you need Thierry's other patches for that? I'm probably missing something.
