The Exynos Chip ID driver on Exynos SoCs has so far only informational purpose - to expose the SoC device in sysfs. No other drivers depend on it so there is really no benefit of initializing it early. The code would be the most flexible if converted to a regular driver. However there is already another driver - Exynos ASV (Adaptive Supply Voltage) - which binds to the device node of Chip ID. The solution is to convert the Exynos Chip ID to a built in driver and merge the Exynos ASV into it. This has several benefits: 1. Although the Exynos ASV driver binds to a device node present in all Exynos DTS (generic compatible), it fails to probe except on the supported ones (only Exynos5422). This means that the regular boot process has a planned/normal device probe failure. Merging the ASV into Chip ID will remove this probe failure because the final driver will always bind, just with disabled ASV features. 2. Allows to use dev_info() as the SoC bus is present (since core_initcall). 3. Could speed things up because of execution of Chip ID code in a SMP environment (after bringing up secondary CPUs, unlike early_initcall), This reduces the amount of work to be done early, when the kernel has to bring up critical devices. 5. Makes the Chip ID code defer-probe friendly, Signed-off-by: Krzysztof Kozlowski <krzk@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20201207190517.262051-5-krzk@kernel.org Reviewed-by: Pankaj Dubey <pankaj.dubey@samsung.com> |
