[v1] ptp: clockmatrix: Add Defer probe if firmware load fails

[PATCH] ptp: clockmatrix: Add Defer probe if firmware load fails

Posted by Sarath Babu Naidu Gaddam 2 years, 8 months ago

Clock matrix driver can be probed before the rootfs containing
firmware/initialization .bin is available. The current driver
throws a warning and proceeds to execute probe even when firmware
is not ready. Instead, defer probe and wait for the .bin file to
be available.

Maybe move the dev_warn() after the test so you don't spam the logs
with failures which are not yet real failures?

Hi Sarath,

Smatch reports that idtcm->lock is leaked here.
