I think you should drop the time stamps here, and also add the battery
notification error to make the patch easier to find when searching for
these errors:

	qcom_battmgr.pmic_glink_power_supply pmic_glink.power-supply.0: failed to request power notifications

This indeed seems to fix the -ECANCELED related errors I reported above,
but the audio probe failure still remains as expected:

	PDR: avs/audio get domain list txn wait failed: -110
	PDR: service lookup for avs/audio failed: -110

I hit it on the third reboot and then again after another 75 reboots
(and have never seen it with the user space pd-mapper over several
hundred boots).

Do you guys have any theories as to what is causing the above with the
in-kernel pd-mapper (beyond the obvious changes in timing)?

Can you add a Fixes tag here?

This patch depends on the former, but that is not necessarily obvious
for someone backporting this (and the previous patch is only going to be
backported to 6.4).

Perhaps you can use the stable tag dependency annotation or even mark
the previous patch so that it is backported far enough.

nit: spaces around *

Ten seconds seems a little excessive; are there any reasons for not
picking something shorter like 5 s (also used by USB but that comes from
spec)?

No need to initialise.

Add a delay here to avoid hammering the remote side with requests in a
tight loop for 10 s?

Looks good to me otherwise:

Not yet. This would be a timeout in a completely different codepath.

I'm trying to figure out a better way to reproduce this, than just
restarting the whole machine...

Thanks for the review.
