Calls to amd_pmc_get_dram_size can fail because the function assumes smu
version information has already been read when it hasn't. The smu
version is lazily read as opposed to being read at probe because it is
slow and increases boot time.

Read the smu version information if it has not been read yet.

Always use () after function names, thank you.

Hi,

Thank you for your patch. This has already come up but no acceptable patch 
has emerged since. Please see this thread for what needs to be done if you 
want to provide one (or maybe Shyam already has one which has just not 
been sent out yet):

https://lore.kernel.org/platform-driver-x86/3b224c62-a1d8-41bd-aced-5825f5f20e66@amd.com/

(Since this dram size is on an init path that always needs SMU version, 
the SMU version can just be called by the init unconditonally rather than 
adding more of this lazy initialization everywhere).

Thanks for pointing me to that thread. I think Shyam/AMD can come up
with a better long term solution, but it may be worth pushing this
patch through for a couple reasons:
1. Probing of the driver currently fails on STB enabled systems with a
Mendocino SoC. A slower boot time is better than the driver failing to
load IMO.
2. This patch only affects Mendocino SoCs, and was a suggested
solution from Mario in the thread you mentioned.

That said, I can also just disable STB for now...

It's debugfs.  The vast majority of people won't need to access it even 
if STB is turned on by default.  It should only really be needed in 
error cases.

So how about if the STB init is pushed into the lazy init path as well? 
You can make the files at probe, and then check in their first access if 
init was done.

I have a patch in place that should address the problem you are
mentioning. I will send that out next Monday after some tests.

Thanks,
Shyam

Great, thanks Shyam! I'll hold off on pushing a patch implementing
what Mario suggested.
