From: Mathieu Poirier Date: Thu, 25 Aug 2016 21:19:01 +0000 (-0600) Subject: coresight: delay initialisation when children are missing X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=62d39ac934daaaecc716d651809b18da8ac255b0;p=linux-beck.git coresight: delay initialisation when children are missing Depending on when CoreSight device are discovered it is possible that some IP block may be referencing devices that have not been added to the bus yet. The end result is missing nodes in the CoreSight topology even when the devices are present and properly initialised. This patch solves the problem by asking the driver core to try initialising the device at a later time when the children of a CoreSight node are missing.
