Hmm, can you give an example where this is needed?
I don't remember them, but I am quite sure that I have seen people asking for that support again and again.
I assume you are thinking of some clock controller or regulator that gets initialized after the cpufreq driver, right?
Yeah.
Are there any that are in loadable modules, rather than just later in the init sequence for built-in drivers?
Maybe both, don't remember. Sorry.
Over that, independent of what the users are doing today, I think its important to support defer probing for anyone that wants to use it.
I think we do care about compatibility there, but there are clearly other ways to handle the special case for opp-v1 if we want to.
Okay, and what are those ? There is only one platform which has used the pdata, mvebu.
