As you well know, XO is the root clock for pretty much everything on
Qualcomm platforms.  We are trying to do things "properly" on 8998.
We are planning on having rpmcc manage it (see my other series), and
all the other components consume xo from there.  Unfortunately we
cannot control the probe order, particularly when things are built as
modules, so its possible gpucc might be the first thing to probe.
Currently, the clock framework will allow that since everything in
gpucc will just be an orphan.  However that doesn't prevent gpucc
consumers from grabbing their clocks, and we've seen that cause
issues.

As you've previously explained, you have a ton of work to do to
refactor things so that a clock will probe defer if its dependencies
are not present.  We'd prefer that functionality, but are not really
willing to wait for it.  Thus, we are implementing the same
functionality in the driver until the framework handles it for us, at
which point we'll gladly rip this out.

Yes.  Do you want a v3 with this fixed?
