Hi Krzysztof,

Can you give me the following details?

1. The dts file that corresponds to the device you are testing this on.
2. Output of <debugfs>/devices_deferred base on at least 5.15-rc4 (I
added more info there recently).

That should tell me all the info I need to debug this. In the end
it'll essentially boil down to a reset controller driver not using
device driver model to initialize the device and directly parsing the
node in some kind of initcall.

Thanks,
Saravana
