Linus, please read the previous thread on pl022.

The long and short of it is that your commit 
2fb30d1147c599f5657e8c62c862f9a0f58d9d99
(spi/pl022: enable runtime PM) is totally broken, and Michel came along
trying to fix the resulting breakage by partially removing your commit
in 6887237cd7da904184dab2750504040c68f3a080 (spi/pl022: fix spi-pl022
pm enable at probe).

The reason why your commit is wrong is:

                pm_runtime_get_noresume(dev);
                pm_runtime_set_active(dev);
                pm_runtime_enable(dev);

                ret = pcdrv->probe(pcdev, id);

So, adding this in spi-pl022 probe:

+       pm_runtime_enable(dev);
+       pm_runtime_resume(dev);

makes the sequence:

        pm_runtime_get_noresume(dev);
        pm_runtime_set_active(dev);
        pm_runtime_enable(dev);
        pm_runtime_enable(dev);
        pm_runtime_resume(dev);

which is absolute rubbish.  Your commit should never have gone into any
tree.

The real answer is to revert both commits to get the driver back to a
sane state, before then progressing with the driver in a sane manner.
This is what Ulf is doing.
