[regression 4.20-rc1, bisected] cpufreq fails to register on db820c

[Niklas Cassel <niklas.cassel@linaro.org>]

Hello Bartosz,

I've run into a regression on v4.20-rc1, where cpufreq on dragonboard 820c
fails to register.

I've bisected the issue to:
e888d445ac33 ("nvmem: resolve cells from DT at registration time")

If I revert that patch, cpufreq starts working on dragonboard 820c again.


Before your patch:

[    5.053133] qcom_cpufreq_kryo_probe:120 speedbin: ffff8000d4d51d00
[    5.058895] qcom_cpufreq_kryo_probe:121 *speedbin: 0


After your patch:
[    4.791664] qcom_cpufreq_kryo_probe:110 speedbin_nvmem: ffff8000d472ed00
[    4.791815] qcom_cpufreq_kryo_probe:120 speedbin: ffff8000d451b300
[    4.797575] qcom_cpufreq_kryo_probe:121 *speedbin: 12


The prints are debug prints that I've added locally:

                return PTR_ERR(speedbin);


So it appears that the read from nvmem_cell_read()
gets another value after your commit.

This value is then given to dev_pm_opp_set_supported_hw(),
however, since this new value (12) from nvmem_cell_read()
doesn't have any matching opp-supported-hw in device tree,
cpufreq fails to register.

This error only happens when we read this new incorrect value
(12 instead of 0).
Any idea why nvmem_cell_read() returns a new value for the
same efuse?


Kind regards,
Niklas
