cpufreq-dt driver supports mode when OPP table is provided by platform
code and not device tree. However on certain platforms code that fills
OPP table may run after cpufreq driver tries to initialize, so let's
report -EPROBE_DEFER if we do not find any entires in OPP table for the
CPU.

Hmm, so we are trying to free opps while we failed to find one.

Are you sure you have tested this on one such platform where we
fail here?

Because this is what I see:

void of_free_opp_table(struct device *dev)
{
        struct device_opp *dev_opp;
        struct dev_pm_opp *opp, *tmp;

        /* Check for existing list for 'dev' */
        dev_opp = find_device_opp(dev);
        if (WARN(IS_ERR(dev_opp), "%s: dev_opp: %ld\n", dev_name(dev),
                 PTR_ERR(dev_opp)))
                return;

        ...
}


And we probably will hit this WARN(), wouldn't we ?

Not with the linux-next, but generally yes.

Yes we will. Which simply means that this WARN is stupid. We also will
hit it if there is no opp table and the allocation below fails; or if
it succeeds then dev_pm_opp_init_cpufreq_table() will fail and we'll
hit this code path again.

We should either drop that WARN() or handle -ENODEV there properly.

Thanks,
Dmitry

Yeah, we should drop it. Its just too hard for such cases. You will take care
of that in your series?
