From 5501765a02a6c324f78581e6bb8209d054fe13ae Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Saravana Kannan Date: Wed, 15 Sep 2021 10:09:38 -0700 Subject: driver core: fw_devlink: Add support for FWNODE_FLAG_NEEDS_CHILD_BOUND_ON_ADD If a parent device is also a supplier to a child device, fw_devlink=on by design delays the probe() of the child device until the probe() of the parent finishes successfully. However, some drivers of such parent devices (where parent is also a supplier) expect the child device to finish probing successfully as soon as they are added using device_add() and before the probe() of the parent device has completed successfully. One example of such a case is discussed in the link mentioned below. Add a flag to make fw_devlink=on not enforce these supplier-consumer relationships, so these drivers can continue working.
