I 'believe' that you 'might' be missing MFD_DB8500_PRCMU from your
config. Can you check this for me please Stephen?

MFD_DB8500_PRCMU is selected by
UX500_SOC_DB8500 is selected by
MACH_MOP500 is selected by
MACH_HREFV60 | MACH_SNOWBALL is selected by
u8500_defconfig

Can I ask how you build the kernel and which defconfig you are using please?

Kind regards,
Lee
